Had the same problem back in the early thirties. My Dad was a reporter at the time and threatened to put the story in the paper about child abuse in the schools.

I am also ambidextrous but I use my right foot on the pedal. I think cause that's the way I learned. Also have a knee lift so it is easier. Have to try the left to see how it feels.
