Handy to know I can stretch my legs and not get penalised for it.

Some of the rules apply specifically to motorcycles.

Rule 270 – A motorcycle rider who is pushing a motorcycle does not have to wear a helmet,
if the engine is not running and it is safe to do so.
Rule 271(1A) (a) – A motorcycle rider may stand on the footrests of a motorcycle provided it
is safe to do so, for example to help them maintain control on roads with potholes or loose
gravel.
Rule 271(1A) (b) – A motorcycle rider may remove a foot from the footrest when it is safe to
do so, for example to stretch.
