Reminds me of the days of jumping off the garage roof into a giant pile of leaves.

lol We had a cul de sac in the neighborhood and would set up a log and a piece of wood and use it as a ramp to jump people. After someone made it another would lay down to see how far we could jump.?‍Reminds me of the days of jumping off the garage roof into a giant pile of leaves.
Or using an old picnic table as a ramp and jumping over people with our bikes. Evel Knieval had nothing on us.![]()

I hate it when they use up all my stored passwords in my brain!
We took a friend's banana bike and doubled the front forks for a springer front end look. He did our jump ramp. The forks bent and the front wheel flew off (guess hose clamps and friction tape were not strong enough). Over the handle bars he went and broke his collar bone. We got his mom and her first words were "I hope you all learned a lesson" as he was laying there crying. Nobody got a trophy back then but he did get some time off from schoolReminds me of the days of jumping off the garage roof into a giant pile of leaves.

Exactly what we did jumping people. Think the worst that happened was one guys arm got run over, nothing broken.lol We had a cul de sac in the neighborhood and would set up a log and a piece of wood and use it as a ramp to jump people. After someone made it another would lay down to see how far we could jump.?‍Luckily I was (somewhat) smart even back then and was never the last guy but I don't recall anyone getting hurt or at least hurt too bad. Man the dumb things we did back then yet we all seemed to survive!
Especially when we all played on these.
Can you imagine the lawsuits now

We did the same but never tried a jump with it. Did some wheelies and luckily nothing fell off.We took a friend's banana bike and doubled the front forks for a springer front end look.
