my pride was hurt more than anything....

Live & Learn. You'll often find me double checking to see if my kickstand is fully engaged when I park my bike now lol

I've developed a bad habit of always double checking to see if my kickstand is down after a stop.
 
Last season, was backing up out of parking space at Tim's on hwy 7. Big pothole in parking space that I saw when coming in but forgot about while backing out. After a couple steps backward my foot couldn't find the ground and the bike tipped over too far for me to save. I was able to keep my grip on the bike and touched it down super gently, found my footing then got her back on two wheels. Minor scratch on stock can; Big bruise to ego in front of several bikers and my buddy on his scoot lol.
