[edit] Getting up or not

"To perform a wheelie on a bicycle, put the bike in low gear, get up from the saddle and pedal forward while pulling hard on the handlebars."
I can do a wheelie just fine without getting up from the saddle. The description should be changed. κаллэмакс 22:31, 19 June 2006 (UTC)


I agree. Friends of mine can cycle for long distances on one wheel - and they all do it siting down. I'll change it.Adrian Baker 12:04, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wheelies illegal on the street?

It appears wheelies bring a misdemeanor charge, reckless driving, if done on the street (at least in virginia) [1]. Anyone know if there is any sort of federal traffic law against it, or does it vary by state, or even county? --Fxer 17:39, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
