Damn, it's like riding BMX all over again I can ride backwards on a BMX (sitting on the handlebars, bike's actually going forwards) forever, but I've never tried on my fix. Maybe I'll go back to my flatland riding spot on 'bust some moves'.

I've tried no-handed and seated trackstands in my workshop (table saw came in handy for something to lean on), I found no-handers were easier, but the bars kept falling to one side or the other, not helped by the steep headtube. I have no toe overlap whatsoever, so I can rest the wheel on my shoe; any tips on how to keep the front wheel in order? I guess I should try standing up too.
