      just wrong gear for the slope level, not downshiftitng before a stop, etc. comes with old age or something I dunno…

      I’ve been riding decades and still fuck up once in while, it happens. Forgetting to downshift at a stop isn’t all that uncommon, at least for me.

        Could be, but I’ll admit: I’m not in the perfect gear every time and I am definitely not new to riding.

        Or you just forget to downshift when you stop, have a momentary lapse of judgement, bump your shifter, etc. This could happen for lots of reasons.

          You guys both have good points. I didn’t even think about all those reasons!
