I got this question: "are you trying to go pro?"
I guess I look like im struggling so hard they thing that. hehe I could also hear one dude on the street talking with his buddies and they were watching me. They said something like : " whats that guy doing?" " i think he saw some stuff on tv" Also heard another "its like some sort of ballet"
Most of the stuff I was doing when they said that was just dork wheelies and forkglides and steam rollers.

Couple little girls walking by while I was out in the street messing around:
"Are you talent?"
My answer? "No, I'm just practice."

" Ain't that bike too small for you?"
"That's a good way to tear up your bike!"
"I'd break my neck if I tried that!"
"I'm going to laugh when you crash!"
"Get out of the road!!"
"Sir...this isn't the place for you be riding your bicycle!"
"Hey, show me something." Well, what would you like to see? "I don't know, just some trick." Okay...(ENDO):-) "What else can you do?"
My all time favorite when people see me practicing: "How come you keep doing the same trick over and over?"

The most frequent thing that happens to me is people, especially young girls, ride by and just holler and scream sarcastically like I'm trying to put on a show or something.
Even my wife is bad about that. I can wipe out and face plant in the middle of a trick and she'll say, "Oh that's good honey, real good, I really liked that one, can you do that again, etc." I have a three car garage that I lock myself in and practice so the world will leave me alone!
People just don't understand. You can have any hobby on earth, but if you do tricks on a bike, "you're a stupid moron who is doing little kid stuff". Most of those people can barely ride a bike. Here's another one, "Get a motorcycle!" I have a 1340cc motorcycle, a four wheeler, two pickups, two cars, and a mountain bike, but I still like my bicycle. People just don't have a clue.

"Get out of the road!!" thats a funny one

I was riding down at the park, letting the shade do it's thing. This kid walks up to me so I stop and take off my headphones. He was like 12 years old with a huge polo shirt and jeans my size. He asked, "what u listnin too?". I tell him, "some hip hop, some reggea". He's smiles and says, "ah yeah, u smoke?" I tell him, "sometimes, ya". Then he askes, "u holdin anythang?" I did not think he was gonna go there, I was shocked. But, none the less, I broke him off a dime bag and kept riding. lol I really didn't think I looked like pothead, but even kids can see it.

I was at the mall parking lot and this guy with his family pass by, turn around and come up to me. The man wanted to see me spin again, so I did. after I finished the crackspin, juggler link, he says, "it would've hurt if you messed that up, huh." I got a kick out of that one. I haven't heard it for a while.
