I cant do a trackstand, even on a fixie. I have a pretty horrid sense of balance and cant go on tall ladders either. :lol: Strangely enough, riding bikes and motorbikes aint a problem, as long as theyre moving.

I might go out today and practice a fixed gear flying dismount--at least I can learn one cool little skill. :lol:

I can ride really really slow if that counts. :lol: :D

I have the same problem as maxi, but I bet we could both do that if we really put our minds to it. Trouble is it isnt worth doing... :mrgreen:

Riding really slow is almost as good as track standing--and its a brilliant skill to have in the city or on the trail. Slow or stand, scan your surrounding, pick a line, and squiiiirt. :mrgreen:
