favoured leg

[Simontm]

Was cycling over to Aldi this morning (travelling for work today so had an hour to spare) and I noticed something. Whenever I tried to put my right leg down when stopping, I nearly fell over like I'm new to bikes.

This happened a couple of nights ago as well.

Weird. I know I'm left-footed but didn't realise my brain would seize up in utter confusion

Anyone else got a favoured leg?

I favour the right leg, but to be honest, I can easily fall over using either, and even both!

I always unclip my left, never really tried to do just the right

Will I still be burned at the stake if I say I don't use clips and have Dyspraxia so wobble like a ship on a high sea?

The one that doesn't collapse when you put weight on it?

I love both my legs equally.

right leg down first for me left just feels wrong and always push of with left

When I'm stopping at lights or similar I always unclip the left foot and put that on the ground. When I'm getting on the bike I always put my right foot over the bike and clip in, then push off with the left foot but the right is at 3 o'clock and ready to start working. I don't know why but I've always done it this way.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I suppose whatever works is the best!

That sums it up very well !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[alecstilleyedye]

I believe it's referred to as your 'chocolate' foot.
