Try lifting your knee up in front of you first and bend your leg. Put your weight on the left handlebar, lean forward and then pivot your right leg over the bike around your hips. It will either work beautifully or your mates will be picking you up off the floor!


and yeah that's exactly how it's done, good description!

Not looking forward to my ride home, very yuk today isn't it?
