I do that!
I drag my feet downtown when all the redlights catch me (a redlight every block or two speed limit is 30 through there). I get aggrivated putting my feet up for a few feet only to put them down again. It's kind of like racing from one red light to another...it makes no sense! When out on rides, sometimes I'll drop my feet to stretch my legs, although I'm more apt to stand up on the pegs than drop my feet or stretch them out in front of me.

I'm not that flexible... must be a chick thing
I'll stand up on the pegs, sit on the back seat, or hook my feet over the passenger pegs, but that's about it... I guess the drag racing thing goes with the stretched/chromed swingarms, hadn't thought of that.

I can't put my feet on them, they hit me behind the knees.

A lot of my brothers do that... I think it's because they have a tendency to idolize drag racers rather than road racers. I do that about 50% of the time...
