What do you guys think about large scale street jams? I think most people would agree that street jams are great fun and an awesome way to spend an afternoon with the homies. But then there are those who say that these street events lead to spots getting shut down, capped, or patrolled by security. I mean when you have 30 or more people all cruising spot to spot, that is definitely the exact opposite of low-key. What do you guys say?

I never ride street jams.......i would imagine riding one would get boring, when i ride street i like to bomb around cities and check shit out instead of staying in one spot

Never been in one of those fat 50+ riders street jams before. I think it'd be hella fucking fun to do at least once in your life. but the don't happen everyday so I don't see how that could ruin a spot long term.

i've never been apart of the large scales ones, usually my homies sessions are like 3-5 people for a few hours.

I'd love to go to one, there was one in my local town last year after a rider sadly died, but I didn't end up going.

I doubt I'd like it, I suck at street since I don't ride pegs. And I only like to ride with 2-3 people.
