No, you have to lean “into” it!

by The Philosophical Fish

Wall-E decided to take the scooter out for a spin. Clearly he thinks he’s in England though, because he couldn’t figure out what side of the road he was supposed to be on.

Crossing over the line can be dangerous on a bike, particularly if the way beyond isn’t visible but…in life…sometimes crossing that line is just the best idea possible.

As for leaning, he’s got that wrong too…when you encounter a curve….you don’t lean away from the corner, you have to lean into it to come out of the apex with the best possible line for the road ahead…and then you hit that throttle and enjoy the ride 🙂

If you ever want to get some strange looks…do this in the middle of the street. Every pedestrian, cyclist, and a few drivers were definitely giving me the “What the hell is she doing” look as they passed. And on a street as busy as the one I live on, you have to have a spotter to watch for cars flying around the corner, and be prepared to bolt to safety.

I'd love to hear from you :)
