On several of my cross country motorcycle trips I have parked my heavy bike in such a way that the only way to get out was to ask one or two guys for a push to back it out (no reverse). I always feel like an idiot when that happens.
Once while riding my motorcycle in a funeral procession my bike stalled and I held up the whole line. So I was sitting there cranking away trying to get restarted when one of the riders in back yelled "Is your gas valve on". The bike will only run a minute or so with the valve closed and your supposed to turn it on before starting.
