I've had success laying my bike on it's side so the sensor can pick it up.

    For this to consider, you have to know there is a induction loop present in the first place.
    While many have a sign beside them, others don't (e.g. the one of my tale).
    Had another unmarked one activating the moving entrance barrier at my former workplace.
    First time standing there I got really irritated, as I didn't find a way to open the barrier for me, until realizing the thing with the induction loop. After that, laying my bike down for a second became my every-morning-ritual before work ;-)
