I just got my first fixed bike on tuesday. since then I've hit the empty parking lot twice, practicing riding slow circles, trackstands and skips/skids.
the slow circles are coming along good, helping out my balance and such.
the trackstands are hard, but i'm getting a better feel for it.
but i can't execute a skip/skid. period.
how long did it take for you to be able to skip? any tips?
