It had the worst handling of any bike I've ever ridden, the top tube felt super short, and the steering was so slow, you had to pick it up and turn it to go around corners. Trying to jump that thing on our little tabletop felt like suicide.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">This thing probably feels much the same, but maybe he likes the thrill.</span><br /><br /><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3PKBTbXJjC0/SkxU0RqkVOI/AAAAAAAAAC4/FkhbzDhnjDY/s1600-h/chopper.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_3PKBTbXJjC0/SkxU0RqkVOI/AAAAAAAAAC4/FkhbzDhnjDY/s320/chopper.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5353747314108552418" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Check out Wayne's blog at <a href="http://www.albmodnar.blogspot.com/">http://www.albmodnar.blogspot.com/</a> He's got some awesome photos of South African bmxers and musicians doing their thing.</span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2916438482123956166-8688852997654990411?l=ghettostretch.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>oolexhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13460071140895766449noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2916438482123956166.post-46670157772461558632009-06-30T23:51:00.000-07:002009-07-01T00:04:04.591-07:00<span style="font-family:arial;">We saw these two kids while we were riding at the Hout Bay skatepark. The dude on the right told us that he had built both of the bikes out of random bits and pieces that he'd found lying around, and stuff that had been given to him. He did an especially good job on his bike which is an old nishiki MTB frame with bmx and cruiser bits on it.<br /><br /></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3PKBTbXJjC0/SksHtPFfSzI/AAAAAAAAACo/f5L1jb0o6s0/s1600-h/mtbmx.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer;
