How to ride a bike

Post by Always hopeful » Mon Oct 26, 2009 9:31 pm

Have a look at this and enjoy. It's a perfect example of how practice makes perfect. If only professional footballers had the same amount of dedication that this bloke obviously has. The game would be so much better for it.

Talented bloke that deserves respect!!

Except should he not be on the road not the pavement ans surly dodging Artics and jumping cars on the M-Way would add a little spice using Cowells terminology! :mrgreen:

Absolute nut case, but what a cyclist. Hats off from me for his skill.

Brilliant. But who would honestly risk their bollocks riding across fences like those?

That's why I said he's a nut-case. :wink:

Meh. We all ride like that in Edinburgh these days. It's the only way to negotiate the tramworks.

Is it only me who was half hoping to see him bounce right into a lorry after one on his tricks ???
Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

In some of the clips I found the spectators amusing - rushing to look at the remains after he'd gone off a bridge or down steps into a tunnel. Some fairly amazing acrobatics there.

When are they due to be finished - saw the length of Princes Street dug up when I was up for the festival, and precious little progress made when I dropped by this weekend, or so it seemed...

Ferk knows. They've been at it over two years now and the only bit of track that seems to have been (partially) laid is the bit on Princes Street and I suspect that's only for the tourists to gawp at. (It's supposed to be running right out to the airport.) They have dug an awful lot of holes, then filled them in, then dug them again, then filled and dug a bit more.
