Shoe: I don't think I could ever beat any of them. Maybe on my best day
fuckbmx: i dont think the bike you ride right now would even allow you to be on a gate
fuckbmx: so is that why you gave up racing to become the King Of Dirt? how many of those frames did you break?
Shoe: Yea its a iron horse road bike
