I was running around Queens on the back of my buddy Tommy's Honda XL70 dirtbike too, we'd run from the cops from the 109th all the time and sometimes we'd ride on the sidewalk and cut back into the street but we knew there might be a car coming so you would know to merge in off a driveway instead of between cars horizontally into traffic. If you're gonna run the fucking street you better have some street smarts or you're gonna take a beating, get ripped off or both, lose a finger to fireworks or get killed by a car
