Pedal action soon improves, you quickly develop a smoother style without thinking about it. I found at first I was gripping the bars too tightly causing the front to yaw from side to side in time with the pedal stroke. A light touch cured that.

I find that happens when my cadence gets too high and switching up a gear helps me. Is that right or do I just need to relax more

The more I am riding, the smoother it is getting.

Hardly holding the ‘bars most of the time, very lightly, finding selecting the right gear is less of a deliberate decision also.

Everything seems to be very smooth and effortless now.

Getting used to climbing slower, but surely this is more cycling time
