Riding tip #32 - Please do not ride with straight legs!
pdf version
I think that we can all agree on the fact that the better you ride, the "slower" it feels
It is very easy to "cruise slowly at 40" without even thinking about it
It is very easy to "cruise slowly at 40" without even thinking about it
If you ride at 43 in the forest you feel safe on an open road at 40 ....
but this habit and thinking is sooo fucking dangerous!!!
So either lock the machine down to 10 km/h and ride with your hands in your pockets and with no helmet or other protections
OR
put on the gear and ride for real
...and remember!
...and remember!
- asphalt is the hardest to fall on!
- the electronic components and design is not military grade!
- city people stare at their phones and are often stressed out!
