Ever had the urge to ride through a shopping centre?

Whenever I go to work I think, damn, how sweet would it be to hit up these stairs? Drop after drop after drop at the Range shopping centre. Methinks my XC bike would kind've die afterwards though :( Grand Central would be pretty suave too.

What do the rest of yas think :?:

I rode down the up escalator at Flinders St Station once. It's not hard, but you get a false impression of speed! It's just like riding down biggish stairs really, but your perception of speed gets really warped

hehe it would ay :p i'm getting the shivers just thinking about riding down em :lol:
it would be so weird riding down them when they are going up.... hahaha the feeling would be so weird - i was tempted to do a set at some station (don't remember which) but i was too pussy. but now i've got demons so i wanna do em :lol: :lol: :lol:

but damn... having a stack down a set would really scratch the hell outta ya. :x owww

Hahahahaha, this is gold :D

I've always wanted to do something like that, Ive never had the *guts* to do it inside a shoping centre. Would be hella fun to ride in there though, do skids all over the fake marble floor :).

I have rode in a shopping center before. Me and my friend Andrew went for an urban ride one day, then we decided to go into Calgary Tower Mall. It was all fun, trying to ride up the escladers and such, until the securtiy took our bikes. Then the fun was over, so we had to get my parents to get us out. It was fun times :)

Those are cool cos your tyres make weird noises when you get to the bottom!
