It's been a long time since I intentionally hoiked wheelies on the street. Having said that, they just seem to have a way of happening anyway under power.
While I'm not an advocate of showboating crap on the street, I do think that its worthwhile for riders to learn how to be comfortable riding wheelies so that they feel in control and relaxed when they inevitably occur.

I love wheelies.
I love to do them, I love to watch other do them.

They do have a time and a place, but they are fun and make riding fun.

except when you flip your CR250 over at about 40 mph on a gravel road with only a dirtbike jersey to protect you back - ouch!

or when you flip a pocket bike over at about 4 mph with only a t shirt and shorts.

I am a High speed wheelie Junkie. Hundred MPH Standups are my Favorite!

Is that Laughing at me or with me? Not bein thin skinned just wonderin Bsess

I really wasn't thinking in either terms when I posted. I simply read your post, visualized you unicycling past cars on the highway at 100+MPH and it made me laugh. Then I thought about about you grabbing a handful of front brake while approaching the exit offramp with the rear tire a foot off the ground, sliding the front a little on turn in and then spinning up the rear tire with the tail out McCoy- style while dragging your knee all the way up the ramp!

Haven't seen "back pedaling" like that since John Force last year.

PLEASE tell me when you arrive in Phoenix...so I can move.

(laughing with you)

Not in LDH's Category of "Stuntaz" Just someone whho has more than the basic skills of accelerate brake turn repeat. I will be in scottsdale on Friday so Pack up. I dont pick crowded streets or do this on Freeways and I dont make a habit of it. I know when and where. I have lost a lot of friends down there to stupidity like that and I wont end up dead because of it. Besides I like to drag my knee and ride with friends who dont go for that stuff. Ever heard of PSC? I am a member there as well.

That stuff is illegal so I refuse to participate in such unruly behavior on the roads.

Although it is a lot of fun to do that shit on dirt bikes.

Every stunt video/clip I ever seen is just a copy of the others. They bore me after about 5 min.

Welcome to the area. If you want to get together for a ride, let me know.

This is gonna Kill LDH) We are meeting at the Starbucks in Scottsdale on Pinnacle to ride Bartlett Lake on Sunday morning at 7:00am. I will get the actual cross streets and PM you with em.

Be careful, nothing like spilling your hot grande caramel macchiato on your nutz while trying to do a one handed endo & rolling out of it into a Christ
