I can do this better than anyone,,,,


It's called CRASHING!

Controlled crash right? Standing it up with the elbow / knee? Colin Edwards style?

My (street) chicken stripes. PS I am one of those daily downtown commuters too.

Itching for the track this summer.

Thats what my street tires always looked like. Hanging off has become second nature now so if i was playing i'm always off the seat. Even only being half as far off as i would at the track, i would have to be seriously hauling through a corner to need enough lean angle to get to the edge of the tire.

What's the term for unscuffed knee pucks? "Chicken Breasts"?

Unscuffed toe sliders? "Chicken Feet"?

Unscuffed elbows? "Chicken Wings"?

I prefer the term "agressive parking".

This thread is awsome, too bad I can't post pics of my 2" chicken strips.

I got chicken strips so wide they're gosh darn turkeys!

I'm okay with that.

Just walking around in the lunch break downtown Toronto, checking out the millions of parked bikes around the office. Can't help but notice how riders are using just the middle of their tires, it's like big *** meaty 10 cm chicken breasts on the sides, lol.... What's the matter, lack of good roads or what? I can't imagine going even turtle speed and retain such strips on the sides of the rear, how is it even possible?!

You should see the ones on the bike I just bought. I think he may have only ever rode straight.

Seems like if you under-inflate you can target the chicken strip area re: this diagram
