BTW, I also start from a stop with my butt on the seat and tippy-toe (right foot only, left foot clipped in) on the ground. But as long as I'm in a lower (easier) gear, I can generally get moving pretty quickly. Just a thought...since I didn't see anyone else mention it.
I don't think this is it, I have even had problems making myself TRY it...somewhere in my head I think there is an image that as soon as I start trying to pedal standing up that I am going to fall over. Of course, I've done THAT a lot and I am still here So I am going to work with this, though I do not know when I will next get to ride...
