That partly makes it a bit harder to have consistent balance, and it also made it more difficult to keep my left foot on the pedal.
Ah, I see. It's nice when your legs and knees don't wave outwards like that. You can TRY to angle your foot so it's inline with the bike rather than toe outwards which tends to encourage the wandering knee. But only stick with it if it helps and does not create any pain in your joints.
