I also ride with no hands on occasion.

I'm impressed!

First time I tried moving my hands around the bars a bit while at a relatively high speed, DH was behind me and saw: NO MORE MOVING YOUR HANDS he said. I knew there was a reason it's better to be behind him! I can practice stuff and he can't see. I have to admit, though, it was a bit spooky that first time!

I'm still working on pretty basic stuff -- no bottle cages yet, I'm happy with my camelbak. If I EVER get to no hands, I'm going to be amazed. DH will probably drop over dead with fright. (speaking of that tipping over thread!) I'll stick to focusing on riding OR talking for now!
