I only start from 2nd if I know I'm going to grab the next gear right away e.g. downhill or some stop and go traffic, also if you're still rolling, leave it in 2nd. For the most part I always start from 1st. This is just my opinion, but it doesn't make sense to start from 2nd as a DD....does anyone really do that on a daily basis?!
