Many of them had pegs on the back bone of the frame. The rider ran with the bike a few steps, and then climbed the pegs into the saddle before the bike lost speed and toppled over. If the bike didn't have pegs the rider would often use something in his surroundings to steady himself as he stepped up into the saddle.
