fighting laws of physics again!

While you're teetering on four contact points, it's like 4-legged table with 2 short legs. With bike perfectly vertical, impossible to tell which way it's gonna lean. And you don't have firm footing on either side to catch it!

Now 3-legged tables never teeter-totter! Physics, triangle, most stable support. Bike's got 2 points on ground already. You only need one foot on ground to complete triangle. If you intentionally lean it 1" to either side, you know for sure it's NOT gonna tip the other way. Scoot one ass-cheek off to that side as you're leaning it over 1" and you have full foot contact AND weight on that foot for traction and support.

Wise person once told me: "Rather than trying to cover entire World in leather, just wear shoes!"

Now close your eyes and IMAGINE... seeing yourself going all over the World... anywhere you wanna go... And imagine finding all sorts of fun and awesome bikes... The imagine yourself hopping on any bike, anywhere in entire World... and riding it and having loads of fun... and never dropping it! Wouldn't that be so much FUN!?? Being able to ride any bike anywhere in entire World, knowing... for sure... 100%... positively and absolutely... that it cannot get away from you and fall over???
