The problem I was having is that If I only have one foot in the footstraps then on my old-er hybrid bike I could do that trick. The other thing is that on my[1] old racer the handlebars had a second brake lever for the cross parts - I think the new way of holding (gripping the top of the brake/gear lever) is causing me to be a bit ... all over the road.

I'me also having problems shifting the front gear- I seem to over shift it and derail (when going small to large cog). Lots more practice needed!


[1] techincally its my dads, and techincally it was my uncles before that. Its probably 1960's built.
