WooHoo! When I was a kid I did it a lot! (Suzuki 120: light bike) Trying to take off was like "Advertures In Fish-tailing!!!" Used to pull the sled behind the bike! Anything over 30 will freeze your Bippy off, to borrow from Rowan and Martin's Laugh In... (Gotta have 39-itis to know about that one...)

Finally found a good pair of leather gloves so I could hang on to the Suzuki, which sure made things a lot more fun. There's nothing like trying to move tingling fingers that are well frostbitten...

Got caught in a hailstorm one time. Felt like I was going through a gauntlet where they were throwing baseballs!

...oh, wait a minute! Controller thread!!! ...bunch of words I don't know... AMPS!... bunch of words I don't know... VOLTS!... bunch of words I don't know... COPPER!
