I did it today
Unintentionally mind, I'm normally pretty heavy on the gears and brakes, I love when the front wheel bites in and the rear wheel skips about.
Coming up to a 90 degree left today in London and I banged down the gears and was heavy on the brakes as usual as I tiped it in I felt the back slide for about 2 seconds (which is actually a long time!) I think I was trailing the rear brake a bit to.
What shocked me was how comfortable it felt, the rear wasn't locked it just slid out the bike turned in much quicker. I didn't feel scared at all it felt gentle and completely stable.
Anyway Cool Story Bro and all that.
Not as cool as when I saw a guy on a push bike back it in. No word of a lie, was sitting at a cross road in London waiting for a traffic light to change this guy on a racing bike flies up the inside bunny hops the bike twists in mid air lands wonky and slides the back all the way round the corner he actually left a very thin but very dark black line on the road, I was in awe. ____________________ Well, you know what they say.
