Is there any problem with holding your head up for long periods of time?
December 10, 2009 7:50 pm | #1No. You don’t ‘hold’ your legs up at all. With only a little pressure, they stay on the pedals (clipless pedals) and if you have SPD pedals, then your feet are always clipped in.

Compared with a standard bike, where you have to hold your head up (rather than just looking down all the time), your head is in a very comfortable position.

December 11, 2009 12:25 am | #8The left hand side is the original and correct side.It was chosen for a number of reasons, but mostly because humans are predominantly right handed.Driving on the right hand side is the wrong side, but more common for historical reasons.Nowadays, the original reasons are largely irrelevant. For safety it would be a good idea for everyone to drive on the same side.
