How can I stop myself wobbling when I look round?

Ditto to Melalvai. I take a quick glance back for traffic and such by just turning the neck and keeping torso parallel to bars, as another poster mentioned. However, If I want a long look-see, longer than just a glance (such as when I am changing lanes at an intersection to make a left), I put my right hand on the top of the bar, not too close to the stem, then take my left hand off as I sit up straighter, turn and place my left hand on my thigh which is at the highest position in pedal rotation. I am actually twisting the torso and head and using that hand on the thigh to counter balance the twist. I'm also not pedaling. HTH.

Try stabilizing your hand on your leg as you turn to look, right hand on right leg or left hand on left leg. Works really well for me.

Since my post of thanks to so many for totally useable great ideas, some more have come in - so warmest thanks to you too. I'm going to try the hand-on-leg method when I next get out but, sadly, poor weather is a-coming and then events will intervene over the next six days - The cause of the events is a happy one: the celebration of my DH's 80th birthday, which was yesterday but will rather take over the next 2 weeks as various family members and friends get together with us at difference places to whoop it up! So if I don't have time to write more than this, it's for lack of time rather than lack of appreciation. I think you're a great group - uber-supportive and it's really nice to be in contact with you all.
