every time my knee has touched the pavement it has quickly been followed by my elbow, shoulder and head.
I'll get it right one of these days. |

Same.
Maybe in a parkin lot, but I don't ever plan on dragging on public roads. FAR too many variables, far too much risk involved, even for the most talented & experienced of riders. If you're on a knee there's virtually no possible way that you can avoid an unexpected hazzard that's in your immediate path while keeping it on two wheels & on the road. That's a risk I'm personally not willing to take. But put me on a track with other experienced racers & I'll have my knee on the ground with bikes just inches away on either side of me.

OK I about lost it when I just read this !! ![]() ![]() I have not touched a knee and probably won't ever on the street. ![]() I don't ride like grandma but I certainly don't ride like Valentino either. I'm more of a driver (cager) than a rider to be honest...but do love to ride. ![]() |

I drug my toe on the blast a fair bit. Pegs were low as fuck and that thing was flickable beyond all belief.
