Gen-X here. My friends and I just said "ride the pegs" or "suicide ride".
Related to suicide ride, but I'm a millennial: I had a childhood friend who rode down a hill on the pegs once. He thought the best solution for slowing down mid-hill was to jump off.
To shreds you say?
Was it a nice funeral at least?
Isn't suicide without the pegs? Just barely gripping on to the wheel bolts. Or on the handlebars?
Suicide was the front, pegs or not. At least for us.
You're telling me you've never pegged with your friends?
We called it pumping, which now that I think about it isn't much better
I'm sure you enjoyed pumping together with your friends
I told my dad a pegging party was when you had the bros on the back of your bikes.
I'm now expecting my mom to text me back any second now.
I see our feeds align
We are NOT done talking about this !
These are not mutually exclusive. Believe in yourself.
Someone call Xzibit
Plot twist: that bike has no seat on the post.
if it does, it would be called "seating" instead of "pegging"
No, the bike is definitely pegging him.
I remember bike pegs. The things that everyone wanted, but no one ever actually used as intended.
What was their intended use? I thought they were made for giving rides, and grinding rails.....
For the cyclist to stand on when performing various BMX stunts
Oh, ok. So while they are in the air, or what? Or is this more like a trick bike display where they are just using the pegs to balance at crazy angles while they stay on the ground, similar to the former SAAB stunt driving team?
Edit: For reference, those are unmodified SAABs. They could just do that shit off the line. That's specifically why GM killed SAAB. They refused to use the GM standard parts, and kept making the safest cars in the world.
More like this, balancing but also moving around like a Saab . https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=koFRMwF26Zk
Ok, that shits really cool. I'm glad we didn't know their intended purpose. We'd have hospitalized ourselves trying to do that
Pegging to your friend's house
Then the real pegging begins
Oh my gawd, I remember. I've literally asked dudes to peg me somewhere....
It can still mean that if you call your ass a BMX.
Pegger: By the power of Grayskull.... I'm gonna...oh god... Have the POWER!
Rider: uhh... Wheely time?
When He-Man becomes Cringer.
He was alwasy He(y)Man.
Nobody's going to mention Evil-Lyn there waiting for Skeletor?
I wish someone would peg me
Bro, let me peg it all the way home
It still is, as long as BMX stands for Bum Masterfully Xecuting
EEE I recognize that boardwalk, Mission Beach San Diego
Happy memories unlocked :')
Gen X here, "pegging" meant hitting your target, like with a ball or something. "Ah! you pegged him right in the leg!"
You’ve got me pegged.
Late Millennial here. We played a game called peg ball (probably invented by GenX) which was just wall ball but you could peg the guy trying to get to the wall to get him out
(probably invented by GenX)
Sounds like it.
Too fun and too many injuries for kids these days lmao
