Those proficient at the track stand can maintain the position indefinitely.

A cyclist executing a basic track stand holds the bicycle's cranks in a horizontal position, with his or her dominant foot forward.

The track stand or standstill is a technique that bicycle riders can use to maintain balance while their bicycle remains stationary or moves only minimal distances.

Once the track stand is mastered, even a very tiny uphill section is sufficient: e.g. the camber of the road, a raised road marking, and so on.

By the time his race is concluded, the kudu he tracks stands exhausted, and Karoha slays it with his spears, winning food for himself and his people.

More difficult variations, mostly for show or track stand competitions, involve complications such as putting the non-dominant foot forward, sitting down, or taking one or both hands off the handlebars.

A fixed-gear bicycle is particularly well suited for track stands, a manoeuvre in which the bicycle can be held stationary, balanced upright with the rider's feet on the pedals.

Where no such uphill exists, or even if the gradient is downhill, a track stand can be achieved on a freewheeling bicycle by using a brake to initiate a backwards movement.

In match sprints riders may come to a stop by performing a 'track stand' in which they balance the bicycle on the sloped surface while keeping their feet locked into the pedals.

Van Den Broeck had trailed the race elite on the climb to Ax-3-Domaines, but when Contador and Schleck engaged in a bizarre track stand for a few moments, he caught back up and finished with them.

While performing a track stand, the rider can keep the line between the two contact patches under the combined center of mass by steering the front wheel to one side or the other and then moving forward and backward slightly to move the front contact patch from side to side as necessary.

To perform a track stand, a cyclist holds the cranks in an approximately horizontal position with the front wheel steered to the left or right, and pedals forward, and back in the case of a fixed-gear bicycle, which the steered front wheel converts into a side-to-side motion.

In stage 14, after Contador and Schleck, the top two men in the overall standings, came to a bizarre seeming track stand in the stage's final kilometer, Sánchez and fourth place man Denis Menchov rode past them and gained 14 seconds back.
