hd camcorderWhen it rains outside something comes over me to cut work short and go enjoy the day. This might be the opposite for people in wetter parts of the country but in Los Angeles dreary days are in the minority. When it rains the streets get very slick as the oil from all the cars starts surfacing. It is perfect for burnouts without ruining the tires. I had my roommate grab his HD camcorder yesterday and come out to a nearby parking lot across from our apartment complex. The rain water glistened off the open concrete. I wanted to get a quick clip of my motorcycle burning out. Might seem lame but I get a kick out of it. Motorcycle tires are expensive but when it rains not much tread comes off during a burnout.

I was surprised by how easy it was to get the rear tire spinning. My roommate moved around me with the HD camcorder as I tried kicking the tail out. It was really loud so the HD camcorder clip is only like 15 seconds long. After that we got out of there so none of the neighbors would complain.
