Sooner or later, we all end up falling off our bikes while stopped or at low speed. In this video, we see with Josep Armengol how to try to avoid it and what to do if it happens to us. It is often said that there are two types of motorcyclists: those who have already fallen, and those who are going to fall. Well, I add something else to that and that is that we have all had a motorcycle fall off while stopped. When I say “stopped”, I mean that the bike was stationary or moving at very low speed, with us on top or next to it, and “something” unbalanced us and… we fell to the ground. Newbies are usually very afraid of moving their bikes for this reason, but I will tell you that those of us who have been riding for many years also fall off! Normally, a fall while stopped ends with a few scratches and little else… on the bike. Where it leaves the biggest mark is on the pride of the biker, that wound is usually worse, especially if it happens in front of other people. Well, at least now you know that you are not alone.
