Good save, I can't be licking your bike with sharp broken pointy bits attached to it!

I pinned myself against next doors back door one morning, in fact, on the way to an org meet!
I managed to squeeze around the drainpipe, and over the top of the bike, that back door was a good place to leave it I suppose.

I had been shouting for a while, with my lid on for help, but the OH was upstairs and couldn't hear me

The choice was between the bike and the leg. Easy. Yanked up on the bars and threw my leg under the bike. As it came down I rolled off and ended up sprawled across the floor scattering the contents of the garage to all four corners, with the bike on top of me.

Got it back up sharpish when I realised the tank was brimmed and petrol was ****ing all over my shoes.

No damage to the bike, but various cuts and bruises and my already dodgy knee is killing me.

Good save though.
Did you spill any of the beer that was in your hand at the time?
