thats just good clean fun, road rash, broken bones and trying to think of what you will tell you mom
when she asked what happened

A green machine would be better since you steer the rear wheels.

How about trike drifting over a ramp over flaming boxes like the 70s photo in the Vintage Photo thread!!!!

We use to do something similar as kids with those plastic Big Wheel bikes. No car invovled just a very steep street. Rode down till we picked up enough speed then locked the front wheel up.

I remember I used to ride my old BMX bikes around skidding the rear tire around every corner and replacing tires every weekend, though not a true drift it was fun and looked convincing enough. Luckily I had a garage full of bike parts that were scrounged from the trash, traded for, or bought from yard sales. I had 50+ bikes at the time.

A friend of mine built a drift trike with swiveling rear wheels. I took it around a parking lot and it was epic!
