  |  good reminder Didn't so much learn this as remind myself in quite a painful way. When you are letting the front wheel come back into contact with the road, keep a tight grip on the tank with your knees, otherwise you slide forward and I guarantee that the gas tank is harder than your body is. Finished the ride off and kept both wheels down the entire time.
