Must be nice having it on the way to the house. I still love the turn, I’m just _a lot_ more cautious around it now. > [@The baby blue shark hood neon tried chasing me down...](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/the-baby-blue-shark-hood-neon-tried-chasing-me-down/30686/640): > > Still not comprehending what chicken strips are. Chicken strips are the un-used or scrubbed portions of your rear or front tire. They get un-used because the rider doesn’t lean far enough over. Leaning comes with balls and skill. Typically it’s a quick way to judge other riders of their skill, holding some exceptions because everybody considers themselves Rossi when you talk to them.

They are the bit of rubber that is unworn on your tire at the edges, as in you were too chicken to lean over further. If you look closely at Icon’s pics you can see the scrub marks and the unworn, slightly shiny rubber from where dirt and road grime has built up and not been worn off. ---
