Can you guys Trackstand?

You mean you have one of these?

No, just a well-padded arse.

When I get to a traffic lights I drop one of my balls as an anchor on one side, and that allows me to balance seamlessly for hours on end.

Needless to say, all the laydeez up in the street are impressed by my MASSIVE cojones.

You might want to go and see a Dr. about that. Oh!

Or join the circus.

Or go to the Balls Pond Road for some relief.

That would be a great way for it to have gotten it's name.

Images of summer testicle cooling in the victorian era.

Searches for boob fountain avenue.

Feet at level in the cranks, dominant foot forward, front wheel turned towards that foot. see if you can find a slight camber to practise against, and resist against it. Gentle rocking back and forth, and you should nail it.

Don't worry about falling over, if you feel you are losing it, just pedal forwards and roll out of it slowly, then put you foot down.

Practise every time you stop! Every red light, whenever you get to your destination, every time! Though made sure you've got enough space to roll forward safely. This is important. I don't want you to die.

It won't take long. It's one of those things that you'll keep trying for ages, then all of a sudden it'll click. Don't give up! It's worth learning, it'll make you a stronger rider, and there is a great joy of being able to cycle your whole journey without putting your foot down.

Couple of last tips I've remembered, standing up in the saddle makes it easier, and some people find that one of your knees touching the top tube helps (extra point of contact or summat).

Good luck! I'll see you at the lights.

Thorough information there ben cheers for the help!

maybe ask the 19th floor crew / posse to teach you

Trackstanding Boris bikes FTW.

Saw a guy yesterday in Goswell Road trackstanding on a Tourer, fully geared, he looked at least 60up.
Winning.

Tiswas I think you're confusing bicep curls with meat spins again.

What's meat spin?

I can one handed track stand at the lights and look like a hero doing it, I normally check my phone on fiddle with my MP3 for extra points :)

Sad thing is this is true, i even rolled up my jeans the other day

I normally fold my arms, sit back and enjoy the break.

This thread needs a picture of cupcakes, winning SEs trackstand comp, on a SS.
