Foot Peg Feelers

[Pterodactyl_imp]

I was turning left from a stop (got the green arrow so I launched), mid turn I wanted to upshift to 2nd. If you squirt out of this turn it's easy to hit the next light on the green without speeding.

Now coming home, doing the right hand turn, there is a separate turn lane so I can pick the gear and power through without shifting; and I've learned to pick up my RH boot to avoid having it caught.

I ride with Sidi boots (they don't look that bad yet!) and they are not all that cheap either. In any event, looks like I do need to adjust my riding a tad.

Probably teaching you to suck eggs here, but I went through this routine:

"Change gear or trail brake (if required), foot back, toe on peg, tip in."

Now it is habit.

Cheers.
