I’ve been at it for a few months now, practicing for 30mins or so at a time while the kids are playing out front. Feeling like i’m almost there – can get the wheel up and just starting to get over the feeling to grab a fistful of rear brake when I feel like i’m tipping back and can now just regulate my pedalling, so a bit softer if I feel i’m tipping back and harder if i feel like i’m falling forward. Just struggling with the lateral stability bit now.
The key is not to pull up with your arms and lean back and use the gearing to get the front up, the more you do it the more you get used to the wheel being up and start to feel more comfortable. Hopefully a few more sessions and i’ll have it cracked.
