I think getting shunted from the rear by one of todays urban hero outfits is going to be somewhat different to being shunted by a morris or austin landcrab back in the day when the Hendon shuffle was thought of . Urban warrior in his uberwagon is gonna go straight over your rear wheel rather than do any pushing forwards .
Fair point Numnum. More likely to end up wedged inside the huge front grill of a Range Rover as opposed to taking a bump from a nice little Rover Meteo…
I’ve been trying to stick to good practice, including the Hendon Shuffle, but 90% of the time I have pillion and I’m not sure it adds to her enjoyment of the ride. She is a very good pillion and doesn’t complain, but waving from side to side while I go through the motions can’t be that much fun.
Ah, now if you’re going to start bringing the urban warriors in their uberwagons into it, then we’re talking about the 5-knuckle-shufflers and not the Hendon-shuffle!
I think I prefer it to the Harlem Shuffle, which I found quite disturbing.
