We have all been there, but few of us have filmed it!
OK…I know that I have dropped many a bike in nearly impossible situations when riding solo and have had to struggle to get them upright, but I swear nothing quite like what Atlas Rider encounters in this video. I laughed and cried by his predicament only because it was such a human response and trial.
I feel your pain, man!!!
