Any suggestions for the above?
1. If you have a wide open area, like an empty parking lot or school, you can practice leaning the bike more so than your body into turns and so-on.
2. I don't want to come off sounding smug but just go find a climb and climb out of the saddle. Repeat as necessary.
One of the best ways to learn is by trying to mimic someone who is already good at it (
