That’s how I got started with the side idle, now that you mention it… I agree
this should be in the one footed skill files, perhaps all skill files dealing
with stationary skills.

I think Dennis means “seat at side idle” or “one footed seat at side idle” not
“side idle” as in the level 10 skill, side ride.
<< I’ve been trying the one footed thing. I curl up my right leg and just crank
with my left. But I seem to always veer off to the left after a while instead of
going just straight. Any hints? >>
Practice while riding behind a shopping cart. That’s what worked for me.
