Default RE: has anyone ELSE dropped their EGC?

ORIGINAL: PhoenixClassic

Question for you guys that dumped 2 up - how'd you get her back on the bike?

And thanks for the links on the proper lifting techniques.
My wife had no problem climbing back on. She knows that I know what I'm doing and has full confidence in me. She also realizes that s**t happens and that sometimes it can happen to us.The second time I dropped the bike with her on board she improved her bail-out technique. Then I used the motor police method to pick it back up(ala Ride Like A Pro) with my wife assisting. We stood the Glide back up so fast we damned near threw it over on the other side!
