Can You Do Wheelies?

[terenceandphilip]

I can't. Well not good ones. I should have practised more when i was a kid, but i could never get the balance of it somehow.

I can bunnyhop kerbs no problem, incase you think i'm a woose.

[Guest milne_afc]

I once wheelied a child's motorbike into a lampost.

Aye was out on the bike today ?

[chief_wiggum]

The chopper was about the most difficult machine in the world to wheelie.

Was it? it was about 40 years ago and i cant remember ever struggling to get the front wheel up, also good at nae handies, could do that for ages.

[The Boofon]

Have to disagree with you there, Champ....

 

 

Ghosties were my forte (especially other cunts bikes when the left them parked outside the shops)

 

 

I would wheelie that easily enough I reckon. While going no hands.

[The Boofon]

Fit aboot een o' these?

 

 

 

Not with an umbrella in my hand. He's just showing off. It's not even raining.

 

Fucking weeds are out of control there as well. Must be a minker.

Cracking question. Doubt I could manage anymore. Back in the day when putting a old can in your spokes and completing the latest sticker book was priority

[RAZOR]

 

Kinda connected but used to put football cards in the spokes.

 

Had a Chopper. Wheelies not too challenging. Couldn't do it nowadays, mind you.

Minker trick that. Spokiey dokeys were the best thing on a bike.

 

Have told this story before but I had a radio on my BMX after being almost decapitated by a clothes line at Cullen caravan park. Boy had his line hanging from caravan to the fence in front with nothing hanging from it and I went tearing into it just above my neck. Best clothesline (Wrestling style) ever witnessed. Almost took my head off. The boy felt really bad about it and went out next day and ought me a bolt on radio for the handlebars.

 

Met the same boy approx 20 years later offshore while he was working as a camp boss. Small world.

[RAZOR]

A radio on the bike does sound cool as fuck tbf. You can have that one.

[E-P-K]

I just found out a couple of years ago, that trick nuts, are called stunt pegs In Aberdeen, amazing.

Had to google that een, going for the guts o £500 now! ...............Looks terrible, basic bike with some plastic stuck on it.

[Guest milne_afc]

The vektar was like a pushbike/kit from knightrider hybrid, wasn't it?

 

*or streethawk

[tightbreeks]

It was utter shit. Flimsy as, made noises had a radio and then broke doing normal bike stuff.

 

Better off with a bmx.

[terenceandphilip]

I admire anyone who can pull a decent wheelie.

[Chewie37]
