@generalposters: I've been practicing again. I don't even use my breaks anymore. I'm not going to take them off or anything, but I can say that I use them much less often than when I started. I have also improved greatly since I started using the toe straps, but I had to adjust the peg on the bottom to flip up the pedal. I also need to get new straps because these are ruining my shoes. No more injuries yet. But bruises are coming up everywhere, from trying to skid stop. Im going to stop that soon, and learn a more controlled way to do it with out smashing my knees on the frame.
are you hitting the top of your leg on the frame? Or are you hitting the bars?
