Now that you know how to do it, isn't it fun?

It's like riding 'no hands' or doing a trackstand or laying down a skid...so much fun that you look for ways to practice it. Tripping lights becomes a challenge. I love to roll up to a stoplight, position myself in the middle of the lane over the sensor and watch the uneducated cyclists dodge over to the pole to push that damned walk button. Ignorant savages
