i heard that in california that it was legal to ride wheelies on public roads, but just for a short distance.

there may not be a specific law against wheelieing, but they can always call it reckless driving (which is what it is)

the problem with riding a wheelie where the cop can see you is that they would probably think you were stunting/not in control...which they would ticket you for.

wheelies on the street don't impress me, and i am sure they don't impress the police or the cagers around the rider doing them.

What's wrong with wreckless driving? I've been practicing it for 30 years now.
