And they even got a Stewie Griffin soundtrack to go along with their amazing performance.

How do you learn to do that without killing yourself? :eek:

Phenomenal. Compare it to "extreme" sports. This requires much more talent.

Kind a "trials" style of riding. Pretty neat stuff. I just like to go fast.

I remember doing a couple of those sort of things by accident when I was a kid............Of course they were rapidly followed by the large crash:D.

As someone who rode trials years ago, (and wasn't very good at it), it's absolutely amazing to watch that video.

Regards, Rod.

Now who would have thought of doing something like that and take the time to learn how to do it...

Probably sometime in the future someone will want trick bike riding included in the Summer Olympics.

Really? How do you define extreme sports?

I got a medium length walk in once while chewing bubble gum. :D

I also enjoyed seeing the link you posted, Anthony. About halfway through did you notice the burl all over one of the trees? :):)

I forget this is a woodworking forum sometimes ! Guy does a full loop on his bike and leave it too Richard to notice the burl on the tree :p

I really thought the filming and music were done really well.....

I'm a pretty avid cyclist - commuting to work on a bike (not every day) and decent length recreational road rides (25 - 40+ miles).

There is no way I've got the balance or coordination to do that!
