Pedalisting is great prep, you'll already know that nobody can see you, and if they could, they'd try and ram you off the road. Thumbs Up

To paraphrase what everyone else has said, try a geared bike before you decide you can't ride one. It does add clutch control to the learning mix, but everyone who can drive a car learned that. You'll be able to do it.
