1 FIND A NICE GENTLE GRASS SLOPE

-

A nice grassy slope is ideal to learn on. It’s actually quite a bit easier to pull off a nose wheelie on a slope and the grass will give you some traction, as well as some padding if it all goes wrong! Flat pedals are a good idea too. To start off, you’ll need to preload the bike a little and pull up like you are bunny hopping but lift the rear wheel only. A good set of brakes is key and one finger braking is the preferred method (as it always should be) as it will give you some extra feel and modulation to work with.
