Also, as a New Englander (more specifically being from the Boston area) I appreciate your reference of "wicked". <br /><br />In a last note, thanks for the help and tips on getting video on my blog.S.

Especially: "riding a bike really is like riding a bike" and "a game called 'forehand'" (I love tennis but I suck at it for this same reason). However, I think I might have to disagree with you about there not being degrees of balance...some people are definitely more or less wobbly than others. I do really like your bike diagram and newfound talent for posting pictures, however I am sad that you changed your background :(Stephaniehttp://www.aneasyspread.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4075038681934700170.post-59946717821505399282009-11-18T15:41:27.743-05:002009-11-18T15:41:27.743-05:00I love this.

Moreover, sometimes there are things far and beyond our control that will just stop that in its tracks, namely gravity. Great post and I loved the anecdotes.<br /><br />Katie, <br /><br />www.musingsof20somethings.blogspot.comKatiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17085966451006953832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4075038681934700170.post-4926134618098102072009-11-18T11:43:58.771-05:002009-11-18T11:43:58.771-05:00I'm sure it will not surprise you that we own ...I'm sure it will not surprise you that we own a book called Bicycling Science.

Time for more pictures! <br /><br />Re. bicycle physics: I still remember when I first found out that once you learn to ride a bike, you never can "unlearn" it.
