it's not a good idea, but that being said, I've done it. I live a mile and a half from Gunstock. I've parked the car, gotten ready and realized I've left something important at home. Poles, gloves, helmet..... Turn that rig around and go get 'em.

I do it every weekend but I'm not on a main road.Only 30 second ride and it's very easy.You don't try and flex your ankle to excelerate.You pretty much extend your leg.My boot won't fit between the gas and brake pedals.Don't think I would do it with a standard.
