Default Finally did it!!!

Last night I finally sacked up and nailed bar, keeping my feet on to tap brakes afterwards. This is probably the toughest feat I've had to learn to date. Deffinitly looks easy, but I promise ya, its a whole different ball game once your at about 11:00 and about to hit bar.

2nd time, just to make sure it wasnt a fluke.

I started the basics of circles last night, its still a ways away. before i get to all the stand up stuff, i need to get my handbrake setup on the bars. after that, I'll get intense with some circles. I think the seat standers are my next goal.

OK, I was wondering. I wouldn't think someone would do that to a real nice bike, lol.
