not really my point but hey whatever floats your boat.. its only illegal if you get caught..

ok let me redo my example:

riding the street is like smoking crack in detroit
riding the track is like smoking crack in amsterdam

or shooting heroin or banging prostitutes..

does that clear it up?

Complete lack of strips on the street now means one of two (or maybe both) things to me:

1. Your body positioning sucks.

2. You ride harder on the street than is probably safe, which is your choice.
Well said. Anyone who thinks Chicken strips are a measure of how good a rider is, needs to learn how to ride themselves.

If you have no Chicken strips, it basically means you are using every little bit of traction the tire can give you.

Basically on the street that means you have no out. You have no more useable traction coming through a corner, if a panic situation was to occur.

how about...


WHO THE FUCK CARES?! so what if you have 5" chicken strips... or if you have none?

as long as your not a poser or an idiot stunter (the ones doing the shit in traffic) you've got my respect as a fellow rider... you can loose or gain from there on how you ride, knowledge, and just what kinda person you are.

not everyone who rides is out to drag a knee... doesn't mean they're not great riders...

besides... I've seen plenty of guys in Alaska that buy track take offs... (yeah they had them shipped up) with no chicken strips... just to sit in the fucking Taco Bell parking lot. you telling me this guy gets more respect?

Lets not judge a book by it's cover... and get to reading
