What else is "just like riding a bicycle" in your opinion?

[Miz D]

Once mastered it can be done automatically and without hesitation. Spirit and body willing that is.

Why I ask. I recently began a simple knitting project after a 30 year lapse in using these skills. Slow going at first but it's coming back to me. Is this what they call muscle memory?

Hmmm

Baking biscuits. When you master this task you need not use measuring cups and spoons. It is all just a natural exercise every morning.

Well, I've read that we do have body memory, but then how do we forget labor? Like riding a bike, I'd say sex, rolling skating, swimming, water skiing....

Roller skating - the old fashioned kind with four wheels, not blades

Muscle memory!

Right! That's what I discovered I'd lost when my son's family came to visit from England this past February. His kids wanted to go bowling, and I agreed [I was a top bowler 43 years ago on my wife's company bowling league]. But 43 years is a long time.

It took me five frames before my balls hit ANYTHING! All three of my grandchildren outscored me! No muscle memory!
