Darren Crosbie-Rowlands Posted August 31, 2021 Author Share Posted August 31, 2021 Well the end of the month is here and im still loving learning to ride. I can now manage a straight(ish) run of 1/4 mile or so in 1 go without any spills or stops. Just need to get mounting sorted now and then there'll be no stopping me!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul A Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 (edited) Maybe try standing straight, upright, no slouching, no crouching. Look at the horizon in the far distance, not downwards. Place ankles above the middle of the pedals. This aligns your body's vertical line, (and thus body's vertical center of gravity) with the vertical center line of the wheel. People usually incorrectly assume to place feet evenly spread on the pedals. Just lean slightly forwards/backwards to move/brake.
