You'd never guess what I saw yesterday by the side of the road:
A one-legged man kickstarting a motorbike! :o
I'll have to add that he was on crutches and was balancing on them. It was a combination but don't ask me why he didn't have electric start. I thought of stopping to ask if he needed a hand but he might have been offended.

If he was lacking in height you should have offered him a leg-up.
