My route out of town in the mornings involves a fairly tight T - junction which at 5.30am never has any traffic coming from the left (one way)........until one one morning. I was on the mighty Tiger and at 2-3mph had to stop when seeing the car with a slight turn on the bars. Foot went down straight onto a plastic bag and the big brute and the Tiger went down slowly and gracefully like the Titanic. Really pissed off with myself I heaved it slowly back up and threw it straight over onto the other side having forgotten to put the side stand down. Even at 5.30am you just know someone was wetting themselves behind a curtain......
Those are my principles...if you don't like them I have others.
