Aero Bars

Thanks for the suggestions!

I hope I don't fall and kill myself. I am very accident prone.

What the other ladies said is all great advice.Once you get comfortable and relaxed in the aero position this is the best part:the faster you go the more stable you will be!!!!WOO-HOO!!

Just adding in to what the others have said - practice practice practice...

I only used my aeros on straight stretches of road initially, and when there was no wind blowing. If I heard a car or truck coming I would get back on the hoods.

After a couple of weeks, I began to feel ok staying on them in light wind, and around gentle bends.

Now I can stay balanced on them in very strong winds (but not gale force), and when sheep trucks pass me at 100km per hour... and the only reason I come off them in a race is climbing asteep hill, or at turn around points. I have bar end shifters now and that means I can stay on them to change gear.

Good luck and just kkep trying. Aeros change your centre of gravity on a bike, and its just a matter of getting used to it.
