Not for me, I'll stick to working on cars. The dog is nice impromptu obstacle, lol.

He had about 100 big wipe out opportunities. The dog was the icing on the cake.

Not down grading that looks crazy, it is but actually it's nothing compared to big mountain riding, racing and single track down hill. Check out some of the newest downhill biking videos, it destroys that little urban ride.
Really! (i'll search and post soon)

Funny --- A couple of days ago I'd sent this to Rodger (Ironworks) and Tracy (Recovery Room) and asked them to send the link to Marty (SyborgTT).... 'cause he's a bike nut.

I loved watching that video! I can't believe people actually have the guts to do that stuff!

So I ask the guy who runs our mountain bike store for some kick ass downhill footage... he sends me that same link! So ya maybe I'm wrong. Thats from the Red Bull Rampage. I'll still post some mind blowing mountain stuff and redeem my self.

I spent a little time on a freestyle bmx bike in an urban enviroment. The difficulty level here is off the charts. All the people screaming while he's riding down all those flights of steps. The narrow track and curbs.... I can't imagine the rush!
