it's not too bad once you get the bike close to vertical. it's the initial lift that just about blows a gasket. I was suprized that I got the C90 up by my self. I had no idea how I was going to 'splain this to the wife if I couln't lift it back up so failure wasn't an option. Once you have the bike up its all about regular balance. of couse if you are not paying attention you can easily tip it over on the other side.

I found it interesting that there is a point of no return when you tip a bike. No matter how much you grunt, once past this point, the bike is going down.

yup...listen to me, if it falls and you don't think you can lift it by yourself (over 500lbs) DON"T.... I'm still trying to recover from a compression fracture on L4.... oh I was strong enough...my bones weren't, all I had to do was wait 30 seconds and I would have had help and a healthy back. Lesson learned, i'm older, get help, if can't get help, call someone on yer phone, don't have reception? walk till you get it...

Happy to report all is much better.
Ladder and lifting is going much easier.
I haven't had to ice, heat, ice for a couple days
now. Also only a couple Tylenol's.
I am hoping weather gets a little nicer than it has
been the last few days. I so want to ride again.
OH and I will be sure to be more observant of my
surroundings from now on... Hugs to all..

It was pretty embarasing ' nice bike, did you you see him almost drop it?" Never touched the ground, YET!

If you still have serious pain after a few months, google "Dr Jho" in Pittsburg, pennsylvania, he did endoscopic surgery on my back, which had been screwed up for 2 years. He can remove a brain tumor through the nostrils to not leave a scar on your head. He worked a miracle for me, and it was absolutely free for him to review a current MRI to say yes or no.

I only have a 3/4" scar you can't even see any more.

THAT GUY ROCKS.

Did he do a metal fusion or a cement fusion? They want me to wait another 2 months to see if it is healing, meanwhile i'm going to physical therapy 3 times a week, helping me with the strength I lost due to chemo therapy, but not helping with any pain.
