Put the bike in gear so it doesn’t rock forward or backwards onto you If it is on its right side, then put the kickstand down to prevent the bike from going too far when you raise it up. Grab the bike as low as possible at sturdy, non-hot, areas forward and aft. Walk the bike back using leverage and NOT your back! If it’s on the left side then put your hands on the handlebars and place your hip up against the seat. Push up and use your hips at the same time to balance the leverage push. Using available soft ties can also provide better hand holds and grip for hot or slick grabbing points.
