Subject: T1 and bike shoes... Just watched the super duper helpful "setting up your transition area" video right here on BT and finally got to see up close and personal how to do the whole bike-shoe-attached-to-bike-put-them-on-while-riding trick.
That...looks complicated.
And also very fast and cool. I want to learn how to do that. Any suggestions? (Besides from, um, doing that on grass the first 37 times? ). Is there a trick? I'm worried I'll totally lose my balance. Also, I wear socks with my bike shoes...is it harder to slip the shoes on if you're wearing socks? The video suggested rubbing body glide or vaseline around the edges of the shoe to make sliding them on easier, but somehow that strikes me as useful only if you're gonna go barefoot... |
