How do i learn to ride a bike without embarrassing myself? |
Not ridden a bike since i was 8 (that is a long time ago), and wasnt very confident then. My kids have just learnt to ride and i want to be able to join them. I want to learn to ride somewhere private but I dont even own a bike. Any suggestions? My wife was in a similar situation, she's in her twenties and never learnt to ride a bike as a child. As keen mountain biker I took I upon myself to teach her. We used to go down to our local common in an evening as it was getting quieter, find a nice flat spot where there weren't many people and off she'd go with me running along behind. She was worried about people watching/laughing etc to begin with but in our experience no one really took a second glance. Get up early in the morning! please get some one to help ou with this maybe even your own kids could help you I'd just go down your street early in the mornings. Feels good and fresh to get up earlier anyway! :p Just get on it and act as if you were kidding or drunk. Do you have a cycle carrier? Find somewhere desserted or really quiet to go and practice until you get your confidence back. First get a bike. Second find a grass field to warm up on, it won't hurt to fall. The cliche is true. Once you learn, you never really forget. Don't do what my wife did though. She hopped on my racing bike not knowing how much different it was from a mountain bike, and crashed into a tree!! |
