I feel like I could wheelie up the stairs. With a liuttle practice
I thought the same while riding around a local college in the early evening with some friends.. I think it was a mid 90's Husqvarna WR450.
I still have a noticeable, "dent" in my right shin to this day when it went sideways and the back wheel hit the bar in the middle of the stairs. I still can't believe that it didn't snap altogether.
Sure, my damage has scored me some trim but I can still feel it.
I say leave the green screen "tricks" to the young..
I am sure i would end up hurt alot... but i honestly feel like with a day of practice i could do the stairs and then other stuff would start being easier. I think its on my wish list after college.
A friend of mine had a Gas Gas trials bike in college. They are a ton of fun and super light. It got him well known by the local Barneys.:001_smile: Good vid.
it's like snowboarding or skateboarding, everyone looks at pros and think "Wow, I want to do this too, cool" Only a few knows how many times these guys where FUBARed:broken bones, back issues, torn tendons.
Just ask yourself: how many guys out there get into xtreme, and how many actually become pros without major health complications.
I finally got my kid a skateboard so we can skateboard together. So the other day I was showing him how to ollie. Long story short: 10 years and 30lbs later, I forgot how much it can hurt
