Head count for raa east 2018

The trick is to drop it with friends, who share your foibles and help you right it.

Once I dropped mine with lovely spouse on back at a forgotten exit off I-81, and my wife huffed off to the only building in sight, and returned with a wiry little southwest asian man who frowned at the downed Rocket, but between the three of us, got it back up.
 
My worst was backing down the hill of my sister's front yard and trying to turn. The tires were facing uphill, and the top was downhill. No help around. If ya think the R3 is heavy on flat ground, try flipping one uphill.
 
And he's a motorcycle riding instructor.
I bet his students would love to see that.

The really sad part is that I had a class of students who have that happen with the triumph, pulling around to park, foot slid out on sand in the lot, I held it up as long as I could, but ended up setting it down nice and easy, was a good example of what happens on crap surface sometimes. When things go south, if you can't laugh about it, you need to lighten up (unless it is something serious). Given what we rode through in those few days, I was surprised no one else went down, but hey at least I provided some entertainment so it all good
