A graceful dismount! Please tell more or post a vid if you have one.

No vid, I did manage to come off the bike and get back on it again before it stopped moving, only to have the Instructor grab the front brake and pitch me over the bars. Luckily it wasn't fully, only as far as the clocks.

Would have been worth £250 back in the day.
