better spots.
better spots.
the spots we have are pretty decent in the fact that dont get hassled by the cops. but the other night i was prcticing heghchairs with the handbrake, and i was thinkin how nice it would be to have more room. by the time i got em nice and high where i was comfortable, i had to put i down cause i was at the end of the lot. who agree's you would make more progress in practicing if we had a longer spot to ride at? driving up the new jersey turnpike with carm comin home from baltimore we saw some dream lots. there just arent any big distribution centers with a million loading docks in this state. we've had this convo a million times but any ideas where there is a long lot to ride at?
Re: better spots.
only long place i know that is kinda decent is otis elevator in bristol. its long but it pulls you to the left and right. Its good to practice there cuz you learn how to steer em. I like to highchair on the streets but its risky ****.
to answer your question I dont know any good spots. when I was driving home from md I saw a bunch of industrial lots while on 84 I think we just got into Ny when we saw them.
I feel you on this I am sick of our wack *** spots. I dont know if I am going to atl or tampa this winter but I gotta get out of ct. Atlanta has spots we dream of.
ps what are you worried about you got a handbrake when you get to the end just dip into it and turn a 180 lol!
Ac is workin on full throttle sponsorship now but I dunno if I want a hb yet
I just started doing huge ss circles on the 636 and I have done 2 tight 180s and rode away its sick. I just engine brake it until it almost stalls and hang off the ****er till it drops. some are chppy some are smooth.
I dunno if anyone is doing it without a hb. Im in AZ now with my girl and the roads are sick but I got no bike. maybe I can convince someone to loan me a bike peace

I also saw some spots off of 95 on the way to new haven. I think it was in wallingford? I am gonna get on my boys *** about that pratt and whitney spot because he got me all siked up for nothing. He was supposed to get us permission the ride there but never did. That place is sick just plain sick. I got to ride there for 30min but it was a dam good 30min
Re: better spots.
andy and i should have never snuck into that pratt runway cause ridin just hasnt been the same since. honestly i just started using the handbrake and im not picking it up that easily. i just dont have the confidence in it. i tried scrapin seatstanders and could not bring the bike back smooth cause i had to reef on it so hard. ive blown the oring a few times, its very spongy and inconsistent feel. i know its not the equipment though i just need to put the time in.
