HA! well my drop story has to do more with my height. But to avoid it I would have just sat around and thought about where everything is on a bike and what to do as you ride. I received the bike while I was at work and rode it after work at night. don't ride first time at night. plus like I said i just should have had more time to think about the controls. Basically I took off thought about shifting and forgot the clutch and thought about breaking and couldn't think of what to do and just slowed and fell over... I drive a stick shift car it's just opposite clutch on hand and gears on foot but a lil weird to get used to.
