What to do at the end of a ride? I just fall off.

[jaffa1949]

A peculiarity for you Roy.
During the Napoleonic wars around 1806 when both our Nations were very young, the King's English was the mainstay of language for the aspiring emerging merchant classes and the court class spoke French especially in the Courts of the Scots, but the peculiarity I allude to is that the language of the King himself was in fact High German.
There are several books available that write about the reasoning behind American English democratising the language as a device to further distance themselves from being a colony???? Maybe it leads me to an irrational dislike of spell check devices and their default settings.

Yes, and some examples of American spelling ( not including 'sox' or 'xmas' ) are not a new fangled but just as ancient as the correct English spelling, they dug them up so to speak.

It certainly does not, falling off as a means of ending rides is messy, incompetent and dangerous.

You are spreading misinformation and kookery by advocating it, and your grammar is apalling.

You lack of understanding when someone is being facetious is apalling.

All begginers fall off when they first learn to ride. The advice was given to pivot out, the rest was just to make him/her feel better if they fall off trying to do so.

Spelling ^^^

Oh, my spelling, not my grammar. Sorry, I type fast, don't spell check, and not care since I do this for fun and not for living.

By the way, I liked your responce in surfer magazine when they asked you why pay so much for the duke, you compared it to having to put a price on how much your wife is worth, which I think was 100 million dollars?

I didn't say that, it was more misinformation from the author Ben Mondy.

There were many other factual errors in the article, including the claim that I've dropped my price.

Ben has apologised for the shoddy article.

In case you wondering, I meant it as a compliment, had no idea the article was wrong.
