This guy is doing it all the time - ok, at a fraction of Texas tornado's horsepower. Remember when Edwards actually crashed the MotoGP bike but managed to save it with his leg?

Been doing this for 50 years. I don’t replace a rear tire until the tread pattern is gone, unless it’s raining outside when I have to ride. Been doing this for 50 years.

The kid is crazy skilled. Breaking the tire a bit loose on a dirt road in a corner won't feel quite so special anymore!

Throw in road debris, oils and greases, slick road markings and a tire that's worn flat in the middle could very well take the fun away from riding! This young rider would be fun to watch coming up if he stays with riding? Well now, street riding can be another kettle of fish.

I could slide'em on asphalt as well, but concrete was easier. If I pumped up my tire pressure (or used different tires) I could slide on any surface, but that was just for fun-n-games. Europeans CAN slide motorbikes just as well as that demonstrated in the video. Speedway riders have been doing it for years. Technology has made this a lost art when racing most vehicles. Ah well, the good ol' daze, huh? ; - ] I started sliding dirt track midgets/sprints when I was a kid (late 40s early 50s) and graduated (or demoted ;-]) to speedway bikes later on.
