Hahahah.... yes the 'Tenere walk'

Standing on the pegs is fine, and works, but not so if you are in a field!

So, here's another method, I'll do my best to describe it right...

Face the left side of the bike,
You put your right leg on the seat (in a sort of goose step fashion)
hop on your left moving towards the bike....
Slide your right leg down to the peg, and your there.

Or,
before swinging your leg over the bike, bend your leg so your boots are up in the air, it's how I get on/off a bloodbike without marking the panniers.

However you do it... it always looks a bit comical
