I wasn't riding anything as nice as your bike -- a '91 Specialized Stumpjumper Team, hotrodded for road -- but I recall an incident where (Gallup, NM) I stupidly got my front wheel into a grating and flipped over the bar. A line of cars went by, some of the occupants laughing, but an old, primered pickup stopped with 2 Deliverance types inside. The passenger rolled down his window and concernedly asked me if I was alright, and if I needed a ride. (I took the ride, to the hospital where I was PR Director.) Turn's out Bill and Bub were on their way to a machinist to get their Harley's or Harleys' valves ground. No shit!
