Impossible wheel directions.

first, find someone who has an old bmx bike they dont use anymore.
preferably, with a set of pegs attached. take the front wheel off, then
put the pegs on either side of the axle. there you go. thats the way I
did it. then when you get better, consider finding someone to make you a
set of footplates.

Yeah I tried that with a BMX wheel and it worked but the tire wouldn't
move without the pegs moving. So that means that the wheel won't move if
im on the pegs. Any solutions.

My $16 BC wheel is just an old 24" front bike wheel with two tiny pegs
attached. If I roll the BC wheel along, the pegs will spin with the
wheel but as soon as I jump on, they stop spinning. Sounds like you
need to loosen/fix the cones on the wheel you're using so the axle can
spin freely. I'm sure a local bike shop would do it for free.

I like this one, this is like saying learn to ride your unicycle one
footed first, then when you have got it sussed try using both feet.

It is really worth mentioning that the foot plates make it considerably
easier to ride, known by some as "cheat plates". :-)
