Good article on why, how and when to stand.

"There's no point standing up unless you learn to stand well and learn the reasons for doing it. If you're not actually using the standing position for what it's good for, well, you might as well sit down." - Simon Pavey.

Meerkatting as most know is the term associated with standing up whilst riding on tar ... and is only permitted in the first 100m of your journey to adjust your 'tackle' smiley (ladies included)
