It's something I've always done. Unsure of the road and conditions I'll put down my right foot just to feel what the road feels like. I didn't think anyone else did it until yesterday. I was riding through a village with a newly laid surface. They just put some kind of gravel on the road and let the traffic compress it to make the surface. It's horrid on a bike but has been getting better every day. Yesterday I saw a rider going the other way put his foot down, obviously checking on the grip levels. So, do you do it?
