Last night I dreamed that I was riding my old Hercules at such a speed and
around such a sharp corner that the bike and I were nearly laying on our sides.
What an exhilarating feeling! On my ride in this morning I was reminded that
achieving such an angle is not really practical, especially on snow. On a few
corners I stuck my inner foot far out to the side to stabilize the bike- a
maneuver I'm sure any winter rider is familiar with, but to my knowledge does
not have a name. I thought of a few: The "human kick-stand", the "horizontal
arrest" or perhaps the "kick-stand".
Anyone else have a better moniker for this move?
