Exclamation leavin Rubber....

i remember the day i decided to do the longest skid mark (leavin Rubber) via a bicycle in History....

with my brother's bike of course...

I sat at the top of the hill contemplating where i should
apply the brakes to keep from Crashing into the wooden fence.... at the bottom of the col de sac ...

And i was off.... 20, 30 , 40 mph, pedaling down hill like i was on fire
rushing to the nearest body of water....

then i decide to apply the brakes thinkin.... this
will be good for a 40' skid....

well it was a real BAD idea because i mis judged
how many feet i needed to stop at that speed before
i'd wipe out...

as i neared the curb skidding in a perfect straight line leaving the coolest skid mark in the world

...i crashed that front tire so hard into the tar curb that i not only dented the rim so it was un ridable
but my head snapped downwards on Impact...

So FAST that
i smashed my forehead into the center of the handlebars with a big ole KAwack !!! that made me see stars and tweety birds... for awhile

after walking the bike home in a concussion stuper...

i looked in the mirror at my forehead... in Ultimate HORROR to see this HUGE freekin egg of a bump there...

i looked more like a UNICORN... it was so NASTY lol

Toy M16 Replicas.
We used to play "Vietnam"
We'd set up ambushes in the woods, take turns playing the VC, set up booby traps, do mock tortures of prisoners.......
Good times.
