"My dad ... never liked you."

This woman seems to have perfected the art of the forward dismount

"What are you, religious"?

Classic 1970s-era 10-speed, "suicide" brake levers and all.

Do you have video of this? Please say yes.

I learned to ride a bike after learning to ride a horse. Do not swing your leg over a horse's head. Well, I guess you could do it once ...

In that video that stunt biker has a really wild seat (no, on the bike)

What is it??? Looks like a Brooks after using something "other than Proofhide", but seriously???

Not a lot of videotaping going on in 1965. But it's not that hard to do. Try it while riding on dirt or grass to start with. As I said, kick one pedal forward at the top of the stroke while swinging your other foot down to the ground; at the same time, let go of the handlebars and grab the saddle with one hand. Won't take you more than a couple of tries to get it down.

Can you only dismount in that manner on a fixie?

It was on AMC last night.

Every time i watch it I find something new.

I have a little poem I'd like to read in honor of this occasion, if I may...

Spaulding, get your foot off the boat!

Lacey Underall : "I enjoy - skinny-skiing, going to bullfights on acid"

Her name alone says it all.

It’s easy to grin
When your ship comes in
And you’ve got the stock market beat
But the man who’s worth while
Is the man who can smile
When his shorts aren’t too tight in the seat

Wanna tie me up with some of your ties, Ty?

Ill bet you have a lot of stories about your ball landing in the rough.

Golf? Nixon plays golf.

Headlights on for safety.

"Yo, you Angie, pick up that blood!"

“She's been plucked more times
than the Rose of Tralee.”

“Someone step on a duck?”

No, he clearly puts his right foot down first, then steps over with the left.

Buddy of mine used to dismount like that. I'm too short and too old!

Thanks for posting. I think all of us kind of wanted to see it.

Indeed, I am only counting the step-over move.

Standard tandem dismount. Otherwise, if captain needs to get off for bio break or fix something, stoker has to get off first and stand well away from bike so as not to get kicked in face. Then stoker has to move in to hold bike up while captain does whatever, instead of just staying straddled. Then reverse to get underway again. Teams that don’t do it this way are putting more burden on stoker for captain ‘s convenience/non-agility.

I’m 67, 5’6”, and not particularly athletic, just lean.

Put left foot down first, swing right leg over h’bars, (in countries who drive on right.). Road crown makes shorter reach for left toe, and bike will fall away from you instead of on top of you if you mess up. Beginners put right food down to reach suburban curbs but this is usually too close to right edge of road for effective cycling (Forrester) and leaves you hanging if there is no curb. Folks who put right foot down have to move pelvis forward and down off saddle to stop with right foot on curbless road edge, then hoist themselves artlessly back onto saddle to get going again.

See this is what we need more of on this forum. No more chain lube or what gear is best or whatever dumb crap people post more threads on, just Caddyshack and other quality movies in relation to bicycles.

Chain lube? It’s all ball-bearings these days.

Did you or anyone else notice what bike it was?

Who noticed on the way to the club he crossed the rail road tracks at a bad angle.
