Hello André,

You read the diagram that you attached correctly. The left hand would move
up-back-down-forward and the right would move up-forward-back-down. I don't
know about you, but I have a very hard time doing that. Ha! So to make it so
that the arrows follow how I move my hands when I sign BIKE, I would rotate
the left arrow so that it would read down-back-up-forward. I hope that this
help you. You can look in SignPuddle for how BIKE is written by clicking on
this link. Bike in US
