Some bikes don't do stoppies well
« on: December 29, 2012, 10:13:11 PM »
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

That is going to hurt with all that protective clothing and cloth helmet!  >:()  Note the crash bars on the sides of the bike, must have been expecting some thing to happen.
