This is my friend Vicky. She took the photo of me and I took this one. It was Vicky
who "inspired" me to ride no hands. She was a natural and could do virtually anything no handed! I've seen her ride no hands almost everywhere. As a kid she used to also ride her older sister's bike, which was far too big for her - but she could ride it no hands. She once did a sponsored no hands ride for charity - round a local running track. She kept going for about half and hour with her
hands on her head, behind her back, in her pockets, on her hips - anywhere but on the handlebars. |
