Understood Mr Zog. Is this form of riding frowned upon? I just need to ensure that its then practiced on a private, isolated road only. It does however help to stretch the legs now and then on a long haul. Arn't all those orange bike riders closet BM fans anyway ?
It is frowned upon, but mainly by the Katoom brigade. And a few others who try to gain points from the Katoom twats because they tend to ride slower bikes and need some form of affirmation of manhood.

Then of course there is the age-old debate about standing on the pegs and the centre of gravity. eish.... there have been countless threads in this regard, with theories, mathematical suppositions, banter, BS, "proof", and goodness knows what else. Some say that the jury is still out, others are convinced, but at the end of the ride I suppose it's what works for YOU, and how YOU ride and feel safe. Perhaps better not to open this can of worms again or the "old regulars" will pull up their chairs and start all over again...
