went to Brid on my little 125 yesterday with hubby, and i said to him as we parked up, hope i don't stall on the way out as its a steep hill from the harbour car park! Anyway walked round had the usual fish chips and a cuppa! Got back to the bikes to see a chap on a brand new 125 bike, not sure what make, had all saddlebags, screen etc, he got halfway up the said hill and......stalled! I really felt for him as he kept trying to get it going, his mate behind on a 1300 Suzuki shouting * " what gear you in you plonker" he ignored him but tried again, by this time 3 bikers sat on the wall stood up and started clapping and jeering, i whizzed round after sitting on my bike and gave them the stare!! Followed by " one laugh if i stall and i will jump off my bike and give you a slap" hubby reassured me i would be ok, off i went, i could see said bikers had now become a crowd and i went hell for leather up the hill!....and as i looked at them all stood with their arms folded one of them gave me a nod and thumbs up! I did it perfectly! Ha ha they all whistled and clapped! Phew what a tester!
