memorable skids

[dyna-ti]

One completely shagged Raleigh chipper rear tyre-> Mum and Dad super pissed-> no bike riding for 4 months.

I've learnt my lesson

yeah right...

Skidding now causes me to lose control ,fly over the bars and lie whimpering on the ground

Yeah, but as long as you do it with style, that's all that matters.

When I was about ten ish, a friend and I spent a good couple of hours doing 'skids'on the road using a small length of PVC guttering.

Build up plenty of speed, lock the back brake as you ride over the 'half-pipe' and skid for long time!

Give it a try!

Try cabling your brakes the other way. It might make you skid the back and not the front.
