Skid SKid Skid*
just put on the cages and straps tonight, finally got to do the orgasmic skidding trick.. ahh..
i know its NOTHING for you guys, but i have been waiting for this moment since i convereted my bike 2 months ago
just wanted to share my noob's happiness.
although my whole bb seems to be falling out and the cottered crank arm is breaking apart..... i just love to feel of skidding too much to give up

get that BB tuned up quick like.
a few days after i started skidding, my BB had some looseness... my LBS said if i had waited it could have potentially been bye bye for the threads..
congrats on skidding. i was giddy after learning in the rain..
