yup...there have been times where i wanted to ride, but didnt feel like riding. so i took the car. sounds weird, but i get this gut feeling that "hey, maybe i shouldnt ride today..." or maybe im too tired, or just not in the right frame of mind.
i love riding...i wish i could do it a lot more! but sometimes its just not "right". just remember that. if you cant make you mind 100% for riding, then dont go.
oh, and as a tip, dont have your foot under the gearshift when moving...only put it there when you need to shift up! other than that, ball of foot on the peg
if you do get it caught again, just stop the bike and lean on your right foot when stopped, then get your left foot free! i know you probably werent thinking that at the time, but eh...just tryin' to help!
