Showing off to my buddies entering a service station with a loose gravel entrance, being a newbie on a DR650 dual sport, i slammed the rear brake and went into a rear wheel drift with bars at full lock, and somehow, didn't lowside. Luckily i was going slow enough to just keep it up.
But i still came in pretty quick and didnt know how to control an out of control bike back then.

on the other hand this probably looked totally bad-rear end

That is AMAZING. The weirdest part is just how low-speed they all are, most of them look to be at like 15mph. Do they not have stop signs there? Are the drivers REALLY THAT oblivious to anything going on around them? Just . . . how the gently caress do some of those happen? A lot of them seem to be people crashing into each other at barely above idle speed!

Case in point at 2:05. Just . . . how the gently caress does that happen?

lol ,the one right after 2:00 is the best example of this I DIDN'T SEE HIM!
