Secretly, I "may" have done a jump or two in some of these spots on my bike. Still, this may be the first time in a long time I've wanted to own a car.
Some sights of my fair city

I am not inclined to talk smack about Block. I couldn't drive like that with all the editing in the world.
That won't stop me from being curmudgeon though. While I'm totally impressed by the skill of drift drivers, it kind of gets old for me really quick. Kind of like a non-stop guitar solo without any chord structure or melody to give context to the virtuoso flourishes. I like seeing drivers (or riders) push the boundaries of their machines in pursuit of some goal, and love watching a vehicle slide . . . . hell, I even love a good burnout now and then. But when it just goes on and on, I kind of space out. I actually enjoy Bullet more than that.
It isn't that I don't enjoy watching stuntaz, it is just that my attention span runs thin. Strangely, trials exhibitions don't wear me out as much, even though they are just as wanky.
Now I feel like a negative dick. I did get a big kick out of the jump.

I can only dream of having such wheelie skills.
On a side note, since the vid has gone "viral", San Francisco is demanding payment for the removal of the rubber from the road. I kid you not! Rubber, from the road, umm, isn't that what the fucking road is made for?!!! Sometimes this town just pisses me off!!!!
