After being kicked out of every lot in this fucking city we need to find a legit place to ride. Who has em and how did you go about getting them? IE, did you get waivers, did you already know the owner, etc?

get yourself a long driveway!!! To my knowledge, the lots most people go to aren't "legit" and legal, just tolerated. when you get a spot to stunt, don't screw it up, like riding there at 2am with loud exhaust, or blowing shit up, throwing trash out,.....and so on. We have a spot that we ride at, but has been "shut down" a few times when people have done stupid things.....good luck finding another place!

This place sucks though, we had been riding at the schools in the evenings. There are two new schools on each side of the city with huge parking lots and in developing areas where there aren't many houses or buildings yet. There really aren't any other places around, there are no industrial areas so i think were just screwed. Cop told us tonight though "even if your in your own private lot you can still be cited for careless driving."

In today's world, NOTHING IS OK at a SCHOOL, thwy will run you from there everytime, try a "hitchlot" or any commuter parking lot on the weekends, typically you will be left alone if there is one to two small drivethrough entrances
Cop told us tonight though "even if your in your own private lot you can still be cited for careless driving."
depending on your location, he is probably right!!! I know in alot of areas if the area is blocked off you can get around that, but that means caution tape or cones, it just easier to tell the cop that you are gonna practice and stunt anyways, do they want you in a lot or on the street.........watch Project of Dreams and see the "conversation between mister Starboy and a middleage asshole speeding driver.
Good luck finding a place, but I would stay away from schools, banks, or any governmetn buildings (post offices,.....)

I have seen that part in starzboys... "speed limits 25 dude" lol i love that segment. The only like commuter lots i can think of are like the parking garages and stuff downtown... don't think that will fly. I just wish there was a big loading ramp somewhere but all of the places around here have chainlink and gates around their lots...

I say this every week. Find a nice lot with a security guy driving around in a pos with a yellow light on top. Security guys are either old men, or guys your age, find one your age. Give him $20, thats alot to a security guard...or let him in on the blunt session.
Our spot is as legit as I think you can get without owning the property. The sheriffs come out and watch us stunt there. Security BBQ's with us... lol
We respect the area, dont do burnouts and mark up the blacktop. we run STOCK exhaust cans(shortened) to prevent noise, geared bikes to keep the speed down and tell NOONE where we practice. I wish I could tell you exactly what the lot we use is used for but if I did everyone around here would find it. Lets just say the lot is there for motorcyle use.

nothing around here that's legit, we're ran off of every spot we get sooner or later. just have to change it up and go to different places.
