Well the ice skating act I put on during my first ride in a group was nothing short of breath taking, literally I ended up high siding and knocking the wind out of myself.

Years later the folks that were on that group ride commented on how squirrely I was. Luckily I was pretty dialed in by the time we got together again.

Don't tell anybody, but there have been a few folks who got extra air in their tires before trail riding while they were not paying attention. A quick burst from the portable tank can provide a few minutes of laughs on the trail.

Only good friends though.
