Smarter Every Day Challenge: Learn the Backwards Brain Bike
Mike Boyd
Mike Boyd takes up Smarter Every Day's challenge to learn to ride the Backwards Brain Bike, a bicycle whose steering is inverted, and rides 50 meters. It shows how hard it is to unlearn a motor skill.
Used as a reference when discussing inverted-steering analogies and how hard it is to rewire a learned skill.
