Elbow down

**hmurphy** · 8th August 2009, 14:08

I got a new second hand front slick for my bucket and it is UNREAL how fast I have been able to corner on it. I am so impressed with how much of a difference it makes to have some good rubber on the bike!!! Anyway I went out for a bit of a piss around to see how low I could get the bike to go... I got my first elbow down! Of course the style was exagerated to get it down. This is how it went:

I would be more impressed if you were scraping your helmet

Lucky neighbours, getting to see (and hear) what a wonderful talent you are on their day off work!

Hmmm. Does elbow and knee down really count when the bike's not really leaned over that far?

You are dead right! I didn't want to annoy the neighbourhood so I was only there for a very short time, and also my bucket is quieter than a lawnmower!

I had the peg scraping and I have no more chicken strips. Does it go further?
