backwards circles? up+down+left+right+ab+start
[edit - hey ultrag, how about next time you're thinking about doing one of the distance rides, instead stick local and ride with a couple of us that can give you insight into the skip/trackstand thing etc. etc. If you're down, lemme know..]
Hey, I'm definitely down with this too. I put the front brake back on my bike, in case of emergencies, but have been riding brakeless (with much pain in quads) ... so far so good too!
When do you guys ride? I work evenings on the weekdays and have Fri-Saturdays off.
I've been going to the volleyball courts in Central Park to practice trackstands.
