What it comes down to is this - pedal strikes happen, but that doesn't mean you should do it intentionally. There a very thin line between a minor hit that skips your rear wheel and something big enough to make you lose control of your bike.
I wasn't feeling insulted. I'm pretty thick-skinned, and one of the most laid back people you will meet; it takes a lot to ruffle my feathers. I was just pointing out that literally every one of ZeCanon's replies included a derogatory epithet, and
appears (I don't know ZeCanon from Adam) to exemplify the stereotype of the roadie who is condescending to newcomers. [/emo]
Enough of that, I'd love to hear more talk about cornering.
