So since 2017 i ride my road bike with one are resting on the bar more like a time trail position than puppy paw and the other hand on the drops or hoods. Last year i start to get some stick for it saying its dangerous. This is by people who have not tried it. One your wieght on the bar its hard to slip off. But with one hand firmly holding the and covering the a brake its still is a safe way to ride. Some ive proven time and time again. For someone who rides a tt bike as well. I feel safer in ( half paw if you like) than riding full tt bars on the road as ive got good control and still can brake.

Some of these rules are just ridiculous

I am new to cycling. Just got my first non-walmart bike this year. Learning the name given to these techniques for the first time is so funny.

How can you ban the super tuck? Like how do you enforce that or have a defined ruling on that? If your chest touches the stem?

"Puppy paws" is the most adorable term ever created

So I like mountain biking but I also like stadium super truck racing and furry stuff. This title confused the hell out of me for a second
