How to practice winning pose?
How can I perfect that winning pose that the pros do after they cross the finish line. You know, pedaling while they stretch out their arms in the air. I want to perfect this skill for the next race I win but I can not keep the bike stable with my hands off the handlebar, even if it is for a second or two.

Don't even try it unless you're flying past the line at more than 50kph. I've seen people come in slowly and try it and waddle... saw a clip on the net where a guy falls off and ends up coming 2nd... A guy in our team did it last year. Looked beautiful. He motored away from the pack and looked like Robbie McEwen. They took a phot of it and it was on this years program as the main photo... but.... He was one lap too early... he still had another 7km to go....  |

Everyone knows Trolls don't win race (their fur gets caught up in the chain), so it won't be a problem.

I perfected no-hands soon after my training-wheels came off....

Even if you were to win a Cat 5, nothing looks more like a sandbagging poseur than a guy that wins a Cat 5 race with both hands raised like a pseudo pro.  |
