That's some deep water. I wonder what the temp was and how far away a hot bath and change of clothes was?

Adventure is discomfort in retrospect.

My mates tricked me into sitting on a Burgman, and one got a photo of me sitting on the scooter. Now I can be blackmailed.

That video shows the advantage of a mountain bike.

Thing is, as Rob pointed out, I'd be wanting to head back home and take a hot bath. There, the power and speed of the MC would be welcome......if it started and ran.

Good mates would help me pull the damn bike out of the hole. I certainly understand their hysterical laughing at the initial event, but I wouldn't ever ride again with guys who just sat there watching me struggling to pull my bike out of the mud.

+1, I understand the laughing, but get the situation fixed and then I would be laughing later too.

I agree with that. I kept thinking "why don't they go help him?"
