    Around the local Kmart there are big cement planters about 18 inches
    high. The cement wall around the actual plants is about 8 inches wide.

    What I did was jump (seat in front) onto one wall of the planter, hop
    over to the opposite wall (about a 30 inch gap), and then hop down into
    the parking lot (the 18 inches down and 18 inches or so horizontally).

    Not that great or technical, but it was the coolest/biggest/most fun
    thing I've done so far.

    Yea, it was fun, I plan on going back there tomorrow, there's a lot of
    cool stuff around back - loading docks, tons of pallets, a narrow skinny
    that looks fun.

    Its impossible to ride around the planter, there's big pillars at each
    end, you probably can't even walk around them; there's no room. As for
    gapping from one planter to the other, there about 30 feet apart....

    If you can gap 30 inches why cant you do 30 feet?

    Places like k-mart and wal-mart and safeway are fun.I always ride there
    when i can.I keep wanting to steal the pallets.one of these days im
    going to get up the nerve to ask if i can have some.They just throw them
    out with the trash.

    As a Seasoned veteran of Wally-World (Wal-Mart) you can try asking for
    pallets, but unless they're severely damaged they stack them out back
    (yes, sometimes near the trash) but they are picked up and used again...
    They like to cut costs by resusing things like that...

    Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total
    obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and
    through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see
    its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will
    remain.
