I dropped the bike on Sunday at the Celtic MC Poker Run. It happened in a parking lot as i was trying to get out at about 2 mph. The front tire found a pot hole and down she went. No damage, I held up the bike before the full weight could rest on the right side. The ODO was at 2,115 miles.
 
Ben,
CDA0342.

Uneven surfaces is certainly in the top ten of ways we drop our Connies.  No damage to you, Abbee or the bike is good. 
Looking forward to seeing the new bike at the MA Tech Session on Sat 4/30/11.  My favorite color.

Welcome to the club Ben. But I still have you beat by 2,114.8 miles, on day 1!!!!!    :))      Glad to hear that there's no damage. Your insurance probably wouldn't be too happy!  ;)
 
Ben - sorry to hear that, but better you than me.  :)
I'm also glad I beat Bob and made through the first day.
 
Perhaps there should be a golden duck award for those who drop it the first time they get on the bike.
I have had 3 folks over the last 4 years the dropped the bike the first time they rode it or got on it!  :'(


Fortunately none were put off and all have gone on to appreciate the finer points of the C10  :)
