I'll do it after a long day of riding as I come thru out little town headed home. It's just a way to stretch out my legs but other than stretching or getting some ventilation I don't see the point.

Unless you're trying to be cool like Rossi....:nana:

I always thought people do that leaving lights cause they are imitating drag racers and how they leave their feet down leaving from the line.

I know some guys that do it like you described but in general I think they're tools.
