 |
|
I've noticed recently that on my commute back home I tend to get a bit tired and lazy and my riding style changes somewhat.
In the mornings I'm "in" the bike and when cornering my arse cheek is off the seat, head tucked in and looking through to the vanishing point, and knee hanging out a little.
In the afternoon I tend to put about half an arse cheek off, don't hang off nearly as much. But the main difference especially in exiting the corners is the way I lean the bike, I'm almost ontop of it and forcing it over on its side with my arms and legs, so my body sort of stays as upright as possible but the bike is leaning over still.
Probably doesn't make much sense but was wondering if the latter technique is bad/good/dangerous ??  |
