Do the cars mind you leaning on them?
Ive tried grabbing hold of the traffic lights or barriers if there are any and that seems to useful.


I also have a theory, bikes are faster at acceleration 0-15mph than cars maybe? Ive got away faster than every car so far anyway.
Ady is correct , practice your stands but i kinda like just putting a finger on the back of a car to hold me till the lights change.
Its not dangerous and Ive never had anyone moan.
Im not a fan of trackstands personally as ive had abuse off motorists who think yoru being flash.
gonna do 40miles tonight as the weather looks nice

Ady, any ideas where you could get a bianchi 53cm frame, coloured like the one pantani used to have.
