Thanks for mentioning that. I never realized that's been happening to me also. It just so turns out my stronger feet to start pedaling is my left feet and the loose strap is on my right feet. Yep, as you advice, I also stand on side walk with right feet such that I can stay seated. I sort of took that for granted

Oh yes OP, one more suggestion to try. Try different tennis shoes or whatever shoe you pedal with. Some shoes have a wider area at the ball area of your foot which make it more or less harder to learn.
