    That's almost as fast as that time I ate fast enough to give me
    hiccups.

    Congrats, though. Feels nice, don't it?

  6. I was getting about 20 feet yesterday, it was my second day of
    consistent gliding though.

    Right now I spend too much energy on slowing down and correcting my
    upper body balancing. I'm hoping to cut down on that hard pressing on
    the tire.

    once you get to a good speed its way easier to balance

  8. Pete VB and Joe Dyson from NZ glide fast
    Joe Dyson takes his pedals off and uses a bigger wheel (i think he's
    used a 29er) when he goes fast.
    I was driving the car infront (whist pete marchant filmed out of the
    boot) and i clocked pete VB at just over 30km/h

    SOunds like your getting up some prety decent speed, try getting
    someone to clock you with a car

    EDit:for hitting the truck not getting blood on his tires
