    Ouch!

    Ha, I'm dreading trying to do a skid. I may have to sought advice... Though I did see a pretty good clip yesterday on how to do one

    And to the OP. well done for doing the skid, ouch to the toenail!

  • Email Velocio and he'll put a little S next to your name by the gold star for donating.

  • slaps forehead

  • Pretty satisfying, thought they were impossible, then talked to chailplin, who simply said push down and pull up with alternate feet.

    Good fun, can actually stop my bike with pedal power.

    However my foot managed to slip out of the strap one time, and now I have a big bloody toe, which I smacked on my pedal.

    So in summation, a happy day, albeit a painful one. I feel like a real boy now.

    Hello emilio666. Goodbye emilio666's knees, tyres.

  • Do a sqid!

  • Spelling fail.

  • Do a squid.

    Yuck.

  • I'd hit that.

  • I think it's very good that you can do a skid. Feels good!

    My sister surprised me, we had her doing a skid after a couple of nights. Now, if ever I shout "do a skid", she does a skid.

  • Ooh err, SMSL!.This is what i first thought of as well.

  • Emil - stop skidding and get building. I need a new bike!

  • Just lean forwards and lock your legs, it really isn't hard. And maybe start on grass or a gravelly street to get a feel for it.

    I don't skid at the moment, my tyres are a bit worn and I don't want to buy new ones until I get my new wheels. Please note anyone who shouts at me!

    Ouch!
