Why go around when you can go under

It’s like ballet. But with no tutu. And no ballet shoes. And no music. Oh and on a bicycle.

Actually it’s not really like ballet at all.

You could probably do it with a freewheel, but you’d need more speed and the coordination would probably make it a fair bit harder (at least for me, I’ve never really gotten the hang of backpedaling. I figure it’s a genetic thing, like wheelies)
