What are some unconventional ways to ride a bike?

[dibblee]

During breaks I often enjoy riding my bike in unexpected ways; not to stand out, though I only just say that, but mostly because I enjoy doing so. Often I tuck my legs into my chest, ride with no hands, put my feet over the handlebars as if I'm reaching towards my toes, ride sideways like someone with a dress would mount a horse, or ride with my body completely on one side of the bike. I would like to know, is this some unusual hobby of mine, or does anyone else have weird but enjoyable ways to ride a bike?

If you're having fun while staying safe and not endangering others, more power to you and your unusual hobbies.
Me, I would be terrified to try anything beyond no-hands, fearing that I'd crash immediately.

The best thing you can do to keep your balance is to look directly forward. Similarly to driving a car, if you look at the ground in front of your path you may find yourself starting to swerve.

Man for a moment there I thought you were talking about bicycles I had my can in the back tire comment ready and everything.

@sterven I'm not sure if that would have a favorable outcome.

@sterven I am however referring to a bicycle, the kind you peddle, sorry if I'm just confused. I do often scare my sisters when I ride my bike alongside them.

I think I should try out a unicycle sometime. Or possibly BMX since it's a fairly cheap hobby compared to MTB.
