I...Good luck with getting used to your new pedals!<br /><br />I also wish the best of luck to your friend and her battle with cancer. I just had my first mammogram and felt so much relief after it came back clear. It's so important to keep up with our own health care.<br /><br />From your last post, good job advocating for your daughter. It's good that the IEP team agreed with you about the special class. One thing our school did for Gracie that helped, was to give her a break after she got some work done. She could take a walk up and down the hallway, and got one on one time from a para during that time. Maybe this would help A?<br /><br />I hope you and your family have a wonderful Holiday! Thank you for caring about my family and for all of your support!The Henryshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17878410407082384985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5066612659034209366.post-23519252881843925612011-12-24T17:41:16.598-08:002011-12-24T17:41:16.598-08:00PS: A real confidence, and skill builder, is to fi...PS: A real confidence, and skill builder, is to find a shallow downgrade, unclip your L side, and roll down the hill unclipped while braking and steering.Grey Beardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02238917041257429804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5066612659034209366.post-76638206728725712702011-12-24T17:39:54.571-08:002011-12-24T17:39:54.571-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Grey Beardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02238917041257429804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5066612659034209366.post-63859652583573640912011-12-24T17:38:05.719-08:002011-12-24T17:38:05.719-08:00Also unclip the L foot first, because, being R han...Also unclip the L foot first, because, being R handed, in an emergency, my R comes out quicker. <br /><br />I think you'll find if you hold your L leg in a trailing position a foot out to the side while rolling to a full stop, it will help your balance if the surface gets a little bumpy <br /><br />Rooting for Angi too.

And if it makes you feel any better, I can only unclip with one foot too! I always take my left foot out first, but always clip my right in first. I think it's because I tend to "go" towards my left, so I always want my left food to be "in charge" whenever I'm getting on or off the bike. <br /><br />Here's to a speedy recovery for Angi - we're all sending positive thoughts her way!Theresa @ActiveEggplanthttp://activeeggplant.comnoreply@blogger.com
