How many times have you dropped your bike?

So what's the secret to not dropping it while learning?

Once while practicing a u turn.

The other time getting hit by a van.

Umm... try real hard not to?

I've dropped my once standing still, and twice while slowing moving, one popping the clutch and flying into a shelf in my garage. The other time was popping the clutch, and going over the edge of a huge sink hole in my driveway (which some lady from the county drove into once, I think I'll post a pic of that).

twice on my previous bike.

1st was very minor almost a stand still drop.

2nd was taking a corner too fast for my skill level.
