Once again, fully successful this time, only about 10 minutes and never got out of the parking lot. It requires vast amounts of mental processing because the dividing line between success and disaster is so fine that I have to continually calculate speed, lean, obstacles, cars, feet on pedals, left arm still on handlebar?.
A new learning; when braking, the affected foot-left needs to be on the bottom of the pedal arc, this allows the weight to be distributed evenly with no quick weight shifts as the feet come off the pedals.
An additional item to work on;
1. Buckling the helmet, currently a frustrating one-handed affair. The left arm will not stay up close to my chin - the same problem as not being able to hold a phone on my left hand. My fingers have no release capability so they would pull everything apart.
I'll keep trying.
This is astonishing ... how wonderful that your craziness and persistence have paid off. Congratulations!
