How to Dismount and Remount From the Left Side of Your Bike

"I'm pretty confident that if I tried at 11,500 feet to dismount on the right side, I would just tip over and the remount would be even worse," Fanny Smith says. "In cyclocross, I've always dismounted and remounted from that side because I just feel more powerful like I can get back up on the bike." In basketball, she's a right-handed shot but likes to jump off her left leg when going for a layup. If you think you might need to do this, try it at one of your trails first, see if it works for you.
