#trackstand — Public Fediverse posts

@ascentale @streetmeme @bikenite #BikeNite A1: Posting from Zurich, Switzerland. I might be able to #trackstand for a sec. or 2, at least I can ride very slowly, even with small wheels like on a Brompton. But I never found the urge to really try it. I also dislike fixies and single speeds in general, so no idea if that helps. There's though indeed a track stand equivalent for trikes: Try it on a tilting trike like the #Chike: https://chike.de/ (It probably needs different methods, though.)

Stopped at a red light just behind a family with a young son, did a #trackstand as I now usually do. The boy looked back and his eyes just lit up and as I took off at the green I could hear him excitedly telling his mom, like he's just seen a magic trick. :neofox_uwu:
I hope he looks up how to do it and will be doing it with locked breaks in a month.
