Up a Curb - Get Over It
Approach straight at a curb in your primary standing position from the lower level at a slow to moderate speed. Shortly before you reach the curb push your body down towards the handlebars to get some spring from the front tire and then quickly push your body up from your hands and pull the handlebars up lifting the front wheel up just in time to reach the upper level of the curb. Next, quickly lighten your weight on the pedals if you can and allow the rear wheel to come up to the top of the curb. Absorb any bump with your legs and continue on forward.
If you are nervous about hitting the curb with your front wheel you can practice this at first by going over a parking stall line but be careful to keep your front wheel straight when you lift it up.
A more advanced technique for getting up the curb is to pedal your way up. To Practice this, approach the curb at a much slower speed while standing with your pedals in the 2 and 8 O’clock positions and lift your front wheel up to the top of the curb as described above. Just as your rear wheel contacts the curb crank your pedals to the 12 and 6 O’clock position bringing the rear wheel to the upper level.
These are very effective techniques for clearing obstacles on the trail at slow speeds.
Bazı arkadaşlar da "20 yıldır bisiklete biniyorsun ama bir şey katmamışın kendine" diye de beni uyardı.. (Bunun cevabı ingilizce yazıda).. Bunu diyenler daha doğmadan ben bisiklete biniyordum. Gerçi hiç kızmadım çünkü beni tanımıyor demek..
