Is this for real? I can’t believe he can do that on a road bike.

I had seen Martyn’s Road Bike Party video before and was totally amazed by what he could do on a bike, but before this post I had never seen the Outtakes video. Now that I’ve gotten the chance to see the personality and character of Martyn along with what he can do on a bike, I’m even a bigger fan.

He seems like a great guy and the kind of person we need out there promoting our sport of cycling.

Great post, Stevie.

I really want to try the Wall of Death & I’ve always fantasized about riding over a bridge arch. What I love most about this video is how vividly it captures the beauty of man and machine working as one…at the most primal level. I also like how he points out the dings. Be honest, how many of you cringed at that point in the video? I like the dings on my bike, they are there because I pushed myself and my bike protected me from serious injury. The ones that happen at the bike rack, well…like dings on the door of a car, it’s going to happen.

Thanks Darryl, I’m inspired to do a couple of things on my ride home tonight…nothing too crazy or beyond my ability, but going to grab the attention of smokers on the deck of the watering hole I pass.

Wa HOO!!!

And just when you thought road and trial riding couldn’t get any closer…. Sir Chris Hoy and Danny MacAskill GO AT IT! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63o_cPZhk84&sns=fb
