            Heh, I did more than enough endos and semi-stoppies on dirt bikes when I was young and dumb and full of invincible bullets.

            I barely had more sense when I started riding on the street but I did have the good fortune to have bikes that were too heavy for the rear wheel to lift or with front brakes so weak they couldn't do a stoppie unless I hit something.
