The problem is I can stand while standing on the pedals no problem, but I cannot stand while seated. I had my toe straps loose but at this one moment I thought I could pull through the reverse thrust force necessary to over come balance. I was wrong but I am a better man. How does one lock there wheel sideways sitting in there saddle and still maintain the mental faculty of balance whilst drinking a beer?
