Once you get more confident about escalators that will open up more tube stations for you. If you get a firm hold on the front handlebars in the middle with one hand and a good grip on the rail with the other hand it will ride along next to you quite nicely. And people always offer to help.<br /><br />I've also been left standing at a bus stop more than once even after ringing the bell to request access, once even with a friend on the bus telling the driver he needed to let the ramp down.<br /><br />Good luck on your further adventures!Elise Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01496233347220937596noreply@blogger.com
