I ride a bike from Scotland, have never switched it back so just think "motorcycle" when on it. A friend once went to China, told of how he jumped on a bike, went to do a rear wheel slide in the dirt, hauled on the right brake to do a rear lock up slide, and was promptly pitched on his keester when the front locked and slid out....wasnt hurt, just a funny story he tells.
good luck finding a place.
Well he better not steal my bike, because that's how I'm set up too.
