Dress for the fall not for the ride.

You never know when you’re going to fall so might as well be prepared all the time.

I always seem to skeptical about pics knowing the capabilities of photo shop. Is it me or the pic with the wheel cranked, the handle bars don’t look like they are cranked to the left. I don’t ride so I don’t know if that just what it looks like or not.

It probably real. I looked on the website they are from in the archives, you would think they would have had some of the after shots. Or hope they would I wanna see some skin smeared on the pavement. I know, I’m sick. Don’t get me wrong I don’t wish a wreck on anyone, I just like to see damage.

at first I thought it might be photoshopped. But then I realized that he’s only wearing jeans, not leathers with knee sliders. He’s definitely going down. Also look at the muscles in the shoulder of the chick on the back, she’s tensing up like crazy
