A bit too one-sided

[OakLeaf]

It's easier for me to turn left also, on bici and moto both.

Part of it is just that my vision isn't as good out of my right eye, and when I turn to the right, all of a sudden I can't see in the direction I'm going, out of the left eye that I've been relying on otherwise.

Part of it (and I'll bet it's part of your issue too Catrin) is the crown of the road. When you're turning into a downslope - as you do when you're turning right from the right side of a crowned road - your contact patch is reduced in size *and* it's on the wrong side of your center of gravity. Makes for a very unsteady turn.

And then part of it is the smaller imbalances that we all have that I can't quite put my finger on. I expect it's a rare person who does everything with equal ability on both sides.

I have no issues turning left at all, but my right turns are spazzy.
I can barely do a 360 degree circle to the left and to the right is absolutely out of the question. I think I am going to practice in the school parking lot near my house.

Funny, when I cracked my ribs it was because I tried to unclip on the right. I mount my bike on the left (must be the sword thing - love that!) start up with the right, and unclip with the left. And yep, my crashes (fall overs), have always been to the right. Interesting!

The other night I was on my Gunnar and took a shortcut across some grass to try and grap a gap in traffic on a very busy street in front of where I live. Normally it wouldn't have been a problem, but there was a couple of feet of pretty steep stuff and I didn't realize until it was too late that I was in far too hard a gear for it...

I've wondered if I could get out of my Frogs in an emergency, and I did indeed get my right foot on the ground in time. I couldn't unclip my left foot however - I think due to the angle of the grade and my body position. I just could not turn my foot to get out and I finally fell over and very slow motion.

Once I fell over I STILL couldn't unclip for the same reason. If it had been a normal fall my foot would have come out automatically, but this wasn't a "normal" fall and my body was pointed downhill so I couldn't move my leg easily to unclip. I felt a bit like a turtle in the grass and my Camelbak just added to that feeling

A walker was coming my way who I could tell was getting more and more concerned when I didn't bounce back up. I finally managed to shift my bike enough that I could move my leg and get out of the pedal.

If I wasn't so blasted one-sided I could have unclipped from the OTHER side and then I would have been more balanced and likely wouldn't have been "stuck". No harm done and am thankful there isn't a blackmail video - though it would have been very funny

Uh, yes recently I fell into a yucca. (Fell to the right, of course.) But I couldn't unclip, my foot was pushed into the dirt below the yucca. I had to remove my shoe. Lucky the velcro straps were easy. And getting my shoe out of the cleat was easy, too.
Embarrassing. And kind of funny.
