Hey Kinga , that's one steep mother of a street. I did it on my Speed Tripple,popped a wheelie right where you came to grief. My advice too, get used to putting left foot down and covering rear brake, front will not stop you sliding backwards,you can inch the bike around to a safe position on rear. I have enjoyed watching your vids.Cheers enjoy our beaut South Island.
Just the fact that you slid backwards on dry tarmac attests to how steep the road is. And when you look at the houses on the side of the road there is NO question as to how steep it is. SCARRY!! 🤯 Thanks for sharing with us!
You stop with first gear engaged, it serve as your brake in those cases. Just let the engine stall, you have a 250/280kg motorbike plus your gear plus your own weight, that would be close to 400kg and it's already hardcore in such step with a regular 200 kg or less motorbike so you can't rely on brakes for that. Nice recovery after this falling, I'm happy you managed to not get injured or the bike damaged too much.
Well good on you for giving it a go. I definitely would have tried too. We all fall off sometimes. No harm done. You should go back and have another go.
Years ago ,my cousins and I tried to get up that road in my uncles little Honda car ,we barely made it to the tip, only just enough power to make it. The camera ,doesn't show how steep it is. You did well to save the bike at all.
One Christmas (early 1970's?) the family all went up to Baldwin to try it out... a Ford Falcon, Fiat 125(?), and a Skoda 100 (?) and probably others. Grandad made it in the Skoda with his golf clubs. I seem to remember a bit of blue smoke in the air.
Done that road a few times , funny to watch all the tourists jump out of the way when you come over the brow at speed . My mate pulled a wheelie on his VTR over the top, no doubt some tourists have an awesome picture of that
BTW.. a house was moved onto a property up Baldwin street, on the steep part! Really liked the lady giving you support to take your time. Dunedin = rain. Hated the winters growing up there (Dalmeny street, next street along from Baldwin, also concrete as is steep).
@@onherbike The rear brake would have worked. Once you go backwards, your rear becomes the brake where the most stopping power is: it in fact becomes your front brake in those circumstances. I know, because my house has very steep short driveway: the front wheel slips when I use the brake, the rear never ever does that (I put it in gear and brake like that, the motor is off, but the point remains the same)
Rear brake has all the weight on it and will definitely work Kinga You’re still brave taking a heavy bike up there Following someone else up there was the mistake ! There’s no room at the top for more than a couple of vehicles Plenty of people have come to grief there
That’s crazy. I live on the steepest mountain pass in Switzerland which is “only” 25% (this is 35%!) and even then it’s common to have ABS complaining at slow speeds.
Wrong panic reaction. happens. Glad you're okay and could laugh it off. 😅 On a flat road the panic reaction that we're all trained for is clutch in and front brake. On an incline this reaction is bad though. We have to either use the rear brake. Or, in an emergency, just kill the engine and *don't touch the clutch*! Hands off the levers, basically. And then you have all the time and can think about what to do next. I'm pretty sure you know all this, but you were caught off guard in this situation. 🙈 That's why we have to practice this every now and then and remind ourselves what to do when we have a steep climb.
I road up it a few years ago on a triumph 800 tiger, no cars In front only loads of Chinese tourists. Stopped just before the top and same happened to me but I didn't fall off, I just opened the throttle and dumped the clutch and shot past everyone. Was talking to a guy who lives at the bottom, he said if you look at the road, the tarmac only goes half way up then it's concrete. Apparently on very hot days when the tarmac went all the way to the top it used to start to melt and slip down the hill.
I either remember or was told that Dalmany St. (next one down.. not quite as steep) was unsealed when we moved their about 1960. It is also concreted as are some other Dunedin streets. I expect that method was adopted after some failures. The ones I know about all face NW (so gets afternoon sun)
Interesting that Dalmeny St has a section at the bottom before the corner that is sealed, giving it the potential to freeze which could catch someone out sending them into the Armco
Oh dear. That was a rather strange tumble especially seeing that it is a pave road.!! It reminds me of the time that you too a tumble on the Sani Pass in South Africa. Have fun. Regards from Cape Town.
Who has never crashed? Who has never made a driving error? The most important thing is not to injure ourselves or hurt others, material damage always has a solution. Have a good trip, Kinga.👍
Drop the clutch next time, bike stalls and rear locks. Allows you to keep hands on bars and feet on ground (if you reach for rear brake you usually lose balance). Same technique on steep gravel if you have to. Must be in gear first of course which I think you were.
Awesome video! I had a similar mishap where I hit a patch of ice on a very steep section. Thank God for hill hold assist. I did get out of it, but geez that was nerve racking for sure. I wonder - can you put Marmite in soup? Best!
You had reached the end of the steep street but due to the car in front of you, you could not complete your steep climbing mission but I was expecting that after getting-up you will go all the way to the top but it was a great effort with such a loaded bike.
It's the hardest thing to think of, but in that situation the easiest thing to remember is let the clutch out and stall the bike in gear......after a bit of practice it becomes a natural thing to do.....and it works like a charm. Garth
Just apply the rear brake. This was a typical "I only use front brakes" bad habit accident. When you go steeply uphill, a lot of load is transferred to the rear wheel improving rear brake performance and decreasing front brake performance. When I learned riding motorcycles in 1978 we were taught always to use front and rear brakes.
@@retiredwaterdoctor absolutely right and I posted the same comment but an armchair rider reckoned they knew better. The reality is when you start sliding backwards with the front brake locked and both feet on the ground any attempt to use the rear brake will probably result in tipping over, given you will then only have ONE foot on the ground. You might be lucky, and when you get the rear brake on the bike tilts towards the foot on the ground, but probably not.
I had the same situation on a very steep slope on a single trail in the Italian Alps, Kinga. The front brake simply locks the front wheel. So pressing the lever more has no effect. Your friend is the back brake. Guess why I know ;-) Happy days, Günter/Nürnberg
@@byrnestuff Then what ? Let me explain, after stalling the bike one must put their left foot on the ground and right foot on the brake start the bike and ride away, or swivel left with right foot on the brake to pivot right leaning hillside to ride down the hill,That's how a hill start or turn is performed. So in other words ride the bike how it should be ridden, properly. All said in a friendly respectful tone and manner.
But if you lose balance and fall to the right, when I did it I did wonder if stalling or switching off ignition, but all happened too fast and I broke my right collar bone hitting the hard cement with my shoulder.
Kudos for having the courage to post such an epic fail! I would have been too embarrassed! You are way too seasoned to make such a rookie mistake! Not to say I haven’t or could have made the same mistake but it would still be a rookie mistake to be learned from. ;-)
Easy to say, hey ?😎 How would you avoid it? Even if I let the clutch go and shut off the engine the bike would still slide because of the weight and slippery surface.
that guy that asked you where your from, you said poland. austrailian / poland . he just laughed. I take it there's something something between new Zealanders and austrailians? 😁. great that you laughed it off!
We (Kiwis & Aussies) are like siblings. Austrailia is older and bigger. NZ is smaller and stroppier (and possibly annoying). But Iike all families, pick on one the other will back the other in a flash (ANZAC)
Wow that's some steep hill kinga ! I think a trike or sidecar would of been better in that situation but like you i am a solo bike 🏍 rider, glad you didn't get hurt only your pride. Take care from Roy in England 😊.
Stopping a geared bike has caused many other riders to fall in that same part of that road as well; thankfully often as comically and damage-free as you as well. But thanks all the same for the reminder that I should get in the habit of stopped with left foot down and not the right. Btw, I have buddy a 50cc scooter who lives a couple of houses down from where you had your spill - he uses it as his daily :lol:
Kinga, You should have released the clutch! The front tire will never hold the bike on a hill like that. Also, when you were sideways you can work the handle bars (front tire) back and forth left to right and it will walk the bike toward the downhill so you can take off.
I do not envy the people who live at the top there and probably have to witness the noise and drama several times a day, and of course the engine noise from vehicles that struggle all the way to the top.
Reading through all the comments from the know-it-alls 🙄 Glad you're OK and could laugh about it. I hope you get back to Oz again soon and we get to catch up 😊
Great video kinga,I’ve seen a few videos of Baldwin st but yours is the best 😂,I hope you didn’t hurt marmite. Your are the bees knees with your soup making 😋
Classic hill start mistake Kinga, due to the steep gradient combined with the weight of your luggage, the centre of gravity was much further back on the rear suspension making the bike too light at the front for the wheel to have grip under braking (your front brake was working fine). You should allways keep your right foot hard on the rear brake pedal to hold the bike, only releasing it when letting the clutch out in such situations and not put both feet on the ground. Ride safe young lady 😉
🤣🤣🤣🤣 I grew up on that street, we used to ride our push bikes up and down and race trolly carts down the hill, great times, and we all survived , McIver & Veitch, great Motorcycle shop, went to school with the Veitch's and raced dirt bikes with them ,,,,
yes it was fun, just ride from side to side across the hill ... now i will have to subscribe and binge watch your episodes, thanks for taking the time to say Hi
BTDT. It's steep enough that all of your weight transfers back, the front tire is totally unweighted, so the brake is ineffective, and you can't get a foot up to use the rear brake - which WOULD work.
7:16 it wasn't the brake worked fine, but ya front tyre just couldn't hold the weight of the bike/rider and all that luggage, perhaps including the rear brake may have helped, but it was a bit of a panic situation 😮
Very steep . In aoffroad course they learned me that if you your front brake doesnt hold (on ie lose service) than stall the engine with the kill switch and lose the clutch lever. So your braking with the rearwheel. When possible set your foot on the rearbrake. After this you can start the engine and take off again.
What? well yes, the wheels were full locked but the whole bike slides down, first i tought "what kind of brake pads lets the bike roll down like that?", also the weight is on the back, so less traction on the front, in hill you need to brake with the rear but since the foot was on the ground, there were no chance.
I pulled into gas station and put my left foot on ground and fell over. It was black ice. I would have to be octopus or squid with suction cups on feet.
You need to practice on the hills and roads as such. I use one just as steep but only a block long. I will stop in the middle of the steepest part and get going again. You had time to waste. Be safe and take care.
"Ffordd Pen Llech in Harlech, Wales, was previously considered the world's steepest street, with a gradient of 37.45% at its steepest point. However, in April 2020, Guinness World Records changed its criteria for the record after an appeal from Baldwin Street in Dunedin, New Zealand, and downgraded Ffordd Pen Llech's gradient to 28.6%. The new criteria measure a road's center line, and Baldwin Street, with a gradient of 34.8%, reclaimed the title"

I absolutely LOVE seeing a fellow rider do a "Laugh In" fall, and get up laughing!!!
Jak dobrze było to zobaczyć bo jakoś nie pomyślałam że Tobie to też się zdarza....Dziękuję ❤❤❤
Oh my god Kinga, was that steep street so slippery!!! Probably more people has that problem! 💪🏼👍🏼👊🏼👌🏼🤩

Certainly have another go. As the saying goes:"When you fall off a horse it is best to get right back on it, otherwise you lose your confidence."
I always wanted to see Baldwin Street. You showed me. Thank you!
Next stop Bradford Street?

Go Kinga!
BTW.. a house was moved onto a property up Baldwin street, on the steep part!
Really liked the lady giving you support to take your time.
Dunedin = rain. Hated the winters growing up there (Dalmeny street, next street along from Baldwin, also concrete as is steep).
Our next big motorcycle adventure is looking like New Zealand. Looking good Kinga. That was a damn steep hill.
โชคดีและปลอดภัยตลอดการเดินทางครับ/Form Thailand
These silly things always happen when people are watching ... rest of the time, we ride like legends!😅
Yup... The rear brake was the important one....but good for you to drag the front down....tons of fun...lol.
I doubt the rear break would help. It was too steep, too slippery and the bike was too heavy.

And for that reason also that concrete usually stays ice free

Perfect example of riders that don't learn Left Foot Down On The Ground And Right Foot On The Rear Brake.
Or how to work the handle bars back and forth to slide the front tire downhill so you are pointed downhill to take off.
@@veiledallegory Yeah, you'd be luck if that saved you on this hill; it's so steep you'd likely fall anyway tbh.
Safer to keep both feet on the ground and drop the clutch, let it stall.

Where abouts are you planning on riding when you get to wellington? Im living there and would LOVE to meet you ❤️
That was a fun video. I am sorry you got stopped on the steepest part and could not stop sliding.
Reading through all the comments from the know-it-alls 🙄
Glad you're OK and could laugh about it. I hope you get back to Oz again soon and we get to catch up 😊
Kinga, I believe beetroot is the best for blood-pressure. So a very appropriate meal after that bloody hill. But you didn't die.
Give it some gas ✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻 You got this. 😂. Ridden it and driven up it heaps. It’s steep
Great video kinga,I’ve seen a few videos of Baldwin st but yours is the best 😂,I hope you didn’t hurt marmite.
Your are the bees knees with your soup making 😋
You should have used the rear brake 🫣 But it was more interesting thit way... 😊😊 I watch all your videos... you are awesome 🔥🔥🔥
I'm learning bike from comments.
Lesson: Always put rear brake into action and left foot down in steep hill to halt!❤
Ha I live just around the corner from there! It catches plenty of people out. Nice to have you visit Dunedin!
I can imagine! Bikers provide a lot of entertainment for the locals on this street 😆
Not only bikers
DUNEDIN - my favourite city!!!
After the Lip incident i couldn't help but cringe.... every time you rocked back on that bunk bed!! As for the steepest road thingy.....🤣🤭

In the UK we call hills like that Cardiac Hill. lol
a lot of people get caught out with how steep it really is, i have even seen camper vans trying to get up lol
Nice job 😊
Ok 👏🎉👍
BTDT. It's steep enough that all of your weight transfers back, the front tire is totally unweighted, so the brake is ineffective, and you can't get a foot up to use the rear brake - which WOULD work.
“My brakes didn’t work”….yeah right 😏
Heavy bike loaded up on very steep incline with no weight on the front so the tyre was just slipping on the concrete
Next time rear brake only ❤
Pretty extreme hill. Did you try dropping the clutch to stop the bike, or just the brakes?
Ah my sister and family live in Dunedin 🤘🏻
Love you. Love the video….but the sound quality is terrible I’m afraid. Sorry.😮 can any improvement be made?xx😊❤
7:16 it wasn't the brake worked fine, but ya front tyre just couldn't hold the weight of the bike/rider and all that luggage, perhaps including the rear brake may have helped, but it was a bit of a panic situation 😮
Back brake would have been good 😢😢
if the front brake do not stop the bike you have to release the clutch so the rear tire stops spinning.
Very steep . In aoffroad course they learned me that if you your front brake doesnt hold (on ie lose service) than stall the engine with the kill switch and lose the clutch lever. So your braking with the rearwheel. When possible set your foot on the rearbrake. After this you can start the engine and take off again.
Also rides
Throw the clutch, the engine will turn off and the motorcycle will stop
What? well yes, the wheels were full locked but the whole bike slides down, first i tought "what kind of brake pads lets the bike roll down like that?", also the weight is on the back, so less traction on the front, in hill you need to brake with the rear but since the foot was on the ground, there were no chance.
Hills are tricky.
What a claim to fame😂🥰
Did you get hacked on Facebook? There are a number of posts that are very different from your usual posts. Just an FYI
I pulled into gas station and put my left foot on ground and fell over. It was black ice. I would have to be octopus or squid with suction cups on feet.
bạn nên đi số một khi lên dốc sẽ an toàn hơn
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Kinga go to indonesia🏍🏍🏍
Wonder if it would have been different if you were on your new tires.
I still have my old tires on🤭🙈
6 years, half the world and a total beginner mistake. Just goes on to show that 'every body is an expert on a straight flat road'
And on a keyboard it seems…..
You need to practice on the hills and roads as such. I use one just as steep but only a block long. I will stop in the middle of the steepest part and get going again. You had time to waste. Be safe and take care.

rear brake and/or stall the bike.
😊
Front is light , you are on a hill. Use back brake.
You had to stop that's why. Better if you could have gone!
Que horror 😂
🤦♂
Maybe even a little clutch control next time, stop worrying about the cameras and get back back to basics. Safety first.
