Re: So I jumped my battery after winter, spring, half of sum
Is the battery the type you have to periodically fill with distilled water? If so what is the level? Those types of batteries go bad if not used for a while. First I would go for a good battery tender/ charger that desulfates and deal with the current battery. If the battery's beyond repair then at least you'll have a good charger on hand for the future.
One thing you can count on: You push a man too far, and sooner or later he'll start pushing back.

If you do decide to ride it to charge it, don't STOP riding it until you get to a place with either a phone, or you're back home.
You don't want to find out that your battery is indeed dead, as mine is right now, in the middle of nowhere.
