    Heh, I guess "roll" is kind of a stretch. I just set it on the floor right side up with the face shield closed, got in a kind of side plank position and dragged myself across it using my arms. Hey, it cured my knee pain like instantly.

    To helmetless riders we sometimes say: "Your mom wishes you'd wear your helmet."
    Each day is a gift, that's why it is called the present.
