Re: Way off topic video (clean, nothing bad)
Here's one of my favorites. I love the Danny Mac stuff too but I just can't believe they are doing this on road bikes now! I've ridden lots of BMX, Trials motorcycles, Enduros, mountain bikes, and nowadays road bikes, and they have to be by far the hardest to do this stuff on. I can't even pull a wheelie on my road bike!
Insanity.

Re: Way off topic video (clean, nothing bad)
Ah Road Bike Party. Martyn is a beast, there is also the first one. Worth noting, in the second one, some other guys had to fill in because he broke his spine and is now unable to ride (in a bike trials accident elsewhere)
Also, using basically stock bikes for that seems a bit nuts. I have a Dogma like the first movie, and I would be terrified to use my bike like that!

Paralyzed. It is sad, but he still is a big part of the bike industry. If you notice in this 2nd video, he starts it out, but then Danny Macaskil and I think Chris Akrigg are the other riders. All incredibly talented!

Re: Way off topic video (clean, nothing bad)
Great video of the bobsled run and ski jumps at Park City. It's fun to watch the guys doing free-style jumps in the summer landing in a pool. The bobsled run, ski jumps and zip lines are open to the public.

Re: Way off topic video (clean, nothing bad)
Man, that sucks. I just read his wiki. Funny how I never heard about it. If he were an NFL player it's all that would be on our news.
