Thanks for the laughs, Paul. One of the first pieces of advice I received when learning to ride a motorcycle was “Never ride anything you can’t pick up by yourself.” Subsequently, I raced motorcycles for number of years and in almost every case of unintentional dismount, the biggest injury factor was at the end of the trip from the seat to the ground. And BTW, re: bikes and horses - I know of a guy who always got scolded and belittled by the staff at Urgi-Care when he showed up with injuries from bike falls. Then he started telling them he got hurt falling off a horse. Instant compassion from that point forward.
