Default Got bored the other night, so I went for a ride...

This has been a frequent thing for me lately because i dont get to sleep until really late. I went for a ride, and went down to ASU, snapped a few pics and went on my way. let me know what you think! And bear with me its my first time posting pics


I gotta learn how to get low
First attempt at the emo shot, looks like i photoshopped myself in there
2nd attempt, i think its better
And lastly the JDM slant! hope you enjoyed them!

Chicken Strips: Chik'en St'rips(n) the little strips of rubber that form on the edges of the tyre that are perpetuated by dragging your knee or leaning into corners.

Actually, it's the outer edges of the tire that never get used or contact the asphalt. I think it's about being "chicken" to lean into corners.
