Once a week is not a good Polling gauge. Maybe 1-2 times a year
If I wear the wrong shoes, that tends to make the clutch release harder to feel
I tend to listen to RPMs for take off, so if there is a lot of noise around me. I have been starting to use the Tach as my gauge and that actually is better for take off
Trying to learn hand braking on a hill for take off, that is confusing. I'm so much more comfortable with off brake, on throttle while letting the clutch out.
I do think the hand brake method could be better on the clutch

Old dog new tricks
I never stop trying to learn something new
Every take off, every shift I try and make perfect

Got myself a pair of driving shoes that I can wear to the office without looking like I'm headed to the track. This should work working then bare foot. Dress shoes aren't always the best for foot work.
