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

Flying dismounts ftw.  Speshly when you catch the bike just before hitting a professor on his way to a lecture  :shock:

Serious

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:

oh man i hate it when people see you coming and think they can survive being run over by a bicycle at full tilt.

lol, feel the joust of the hercules bike lock!
