flying dismount: What not to do

Yesterday i wanted to try and see if i could do a flying dismount, at the end of my bike workout.  I figured if I get the hang of it i could try it at the next race.

I learned this is something that should be done with plenty of space to perform.  I attempted to do it as i was coming out of the alley into my very small driveway and toward my garage.  When all my weight is on my brake hoods, it is not a good idea to try to brake or turn, and definitely not both at the same time.  Needless to say, my rear wheel ended up over and then in front of me.  Fortunately i did not face plant like the pro at the last 70.3 that was on tv a couple of weeks ago.

Live and learn.....
