Do you not see the hipocrisy?
If you're implying that they are showing off by riding through the street then you've obviously never rode a street spec mountain bike through a town before. Insane amounts of fun, not showing off at all.

Saw this in the city, just off St Kilda road the other day.

WTF…




I guess this could fall under epic fail, actually this is even worse. This is UN BLOKEWORTHY.
I was stuck at this intersection for what seemed like ages, and the whole time I was there, this old bloke was reading his paper. If you’re not prepared to perve on the sheilas washing your car, why take it to Kittens?



Anyone know of a septic tank business that wants to advertise in this bloke’s car?

I was just trying to line up a decent shot of the bumper and how bad it looked when the door opened and they jumped out, oh well.

Now the people in this thread are showing their ignorance.

I don't ride bike to show off.
90% of the time I ride I go mountain biking in the bush were no one can see me apart from the people I am with. And that's what I like. I don't really want people to see me because if I stuff up that would be more embarrassing.

If it was up to me I would ride on the streets when no one else is around, but that is not going to happen. There is endless possibilities of stuff to try in most cities and I am not passing up that opportunity in case someone sees me and thinks I'm showing off.

The best we can do is only ride 'street' at certain times of the day when the amount of people around is as little as possible. Like last Sunday afternoon.

Riding street inside schools playgrounds is normally fun on the weekend, but you can get in trouble. But no one is around to see us though, so Thats ok, as long as we are not showing off.

So next time you see someone riding bike, skateboard or whatever around town, Don't think they are showing off, They probably couldn't give two shits about you and whether you are looking at them or not, they are doing it for there own fun, no one else.

Why is your mate posing with the sign with that "No, I have not had it yet" look?

He's one of those mates that we all know isn't gay 'cause of his girlfriend, but in the back of our minds, we're certain he is
