Have you noticed that anyone going slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster is a maniac ?

The only time I ever acheived a leg dangle was in the last milliscond or two before I fell off.

First explanation I've heard. Really interesting and everything he said makes sense, obviously won't help me at all. Surprised me a bit that he didn't mention it helping to put off anybody coming up the inside.

I do it regularly.....when the arthritic hips play up. Normally just before that regular emergency, the "Brian stop" :mrgreen:
