This is the brag thread, right? Oh, it better be, 'cause bragging is just what I’m about to do! 
So, today I shifted my Schlumpf for the first time on the move 
The fear of falling on my injured wrist held me back almost half a year. But now that the wrist is quite useable again I took the plunge. And this is where the bragging really starts: I made my very first shift to second gear without UPDing! 
As we all know, what has been shifted up needs to be shifted down again, and once again I didn’t UPD! So I had another go, and it worked again 
…and again …and again …and at some point I had made 10 shifts up and 10 shifts down …and was still counting. I said to myself tongue-in-cheek that I’ll stop at 20. And that’s what I did in the end. I made 20 shifts up and 20 down in a single go without touching for a single moment the ground or a wall! Man, I’m really proud of myself (now you know, in case that wasn’t clear already 
).
Now I was riding slow - about walking speed - and my hit rate for shifting at the first try isn’t great, especially with my left foot. But I’m confident enough to shift on the move from now on, when riding the G29. I’m wearing my protective gear anyway when I intend to ride in high gear. And what’s best: shifting on the move seems to be easier than shifting while holding onto a post or a wall. For some reason (that I don’t really understand) the freewheeling moment was better manageable when riding than when standing still.
I just wish I made that shift earlier.
