On Day 3 of my New Mexico BDR trip I ran into a section of tennis ball-sized gravel that was very deep and very loose. I wasn’t going fast, but still was not able to correct the steering and went down. I was close to the side of the road where there was a drop-off. The bike was very close to the edge and it would not be easy to get it back on the road. The worse part of the situation was that when the bike went down, it trapped my right leg underneath the right pannier. I had the MotoWinch for just this sort of problem and had packed it on the outside of my luggage so I could reach it if I was in a situation like this. My trapped leg made moving around difficult and painful. But with some hard work and patience, I was able to access the MotoWinch and lift the bike off of my leg. Unlike other bike jacks, the MotoWinch attaches to the handlebar…this was great! In my trapped situation, it would have been a lot harder to attach the strap somewhere on the frame like most other bike jacks require. After I had freed my leg, I used the MotoWinch to winch the bike, a few inches at a time, away from the edge. Thanks for a great product!
