- Uphill starts are easy compared to a manual car as you operate the rear brake and accelerator using different parts of the body
- Stopping facing down a slope requires the use of the brakes and a supporting foot, same as a bicycle
- Getting off a bike facing down a slope typically is done by leaving it in gear which keeps the back wheel locked
- OP is correct that some forethought is required on very steep or highly cambered surfaces when leaving a bike to ensure it is stable on the side stand
