Southwend, it's funny you should mention the phenomenon of recalling 'heroic' moments at the moment you are falling asleep. Back in 1973 I broke my left tibia and fibula when some clown knocked my off a 250 Suzuki. I spent 7 months with my leg in a cast to the crotch. The cast had a rubber stopper-like thing built into it so, in theory at least, I could take some weight on it. At some moment I'd had enough of not being on a bike and a mate offered to take me for a ride on the back of his Honda CB750 Four. Of course I accepted and we proceed with me resting the stopper on the outside of the driver's footpeg.
I can still recall the moment when we shot through a deserted pedestrian underpass when I wondered what would happen if my foot slipped off the outside of the peg. I still recall it "... sometimes at night when I am falling asleep and my legs jerk up like a dog dreaming about ..." possums.
