Global Game of Bike: How to Driveway Skid

Want to learn how to really impress your friends? Learn how to do a proper driveway skid as part of @chriskingbuzz ‘s Global Game of Bike!

1. Wear a helmet.

2. Lower your seat all the way.

3. Find a straight section of road, and pedal forward to get some momentum. At the point you want to skid, grab a whole bunch of rear brake and turn slightly in the direction you want to skid, in this example, to the left.

4. Take your left foot off your pedal to provide you a bit of support, and let the bike’s rear end slide away from you. If you want to skid right, turn your wheel right and take your right foot off the pedal. The more speed you start with and the more you turn you wheel, the more aggressive your skid will be!

Oh, and always, always grab the REAR brake to initiate the skid!

Pro tip: practice in your neighbors driveway 🤣 or maybe don’t...

Remember, Global Game of Bike is a Stay at Home Challenge! Stay home and be safe :)
