When I'm feeling a little crazy, I may ride off of a curb. If I am really feeling it, I may ride up onto a curb. This guy's balance is unreal

Makes me want to go play on a bike the way I used to. Not that extreme, but the bike's frame was rewelded several times before becoming scrap.

When riding our Schwinn Varsitys across town we used to get a lot of looks at our ability to bunny hop and wheelie our ten-speeds. I still have the remains of the Varsity. The frame is (amazingly) still intact.

After the area around our houses was fully developed, we needed a new place to ride in the woods. So a friend and I built a trailer to tow the BMX bikes behind our ten-speeds. That also got a lot of looks.

Check out: www.petefagerlin.com

He has some great videos and a couple of his 996TT.

That last bit of Kris Holm on the Burrard street bridge freaked me out. That's insane! Oh to be young again...

This same guy was featured on a show last night. They showed a lot of the footage that didn't make the final product.

He falls, a lot.

I'm not sure how far this restaurant chain has expanded but here we have a restaurant name "Islands" that has a Hawaiian theme and they have big flat screen monitors all over the bar area. On those monitors they have a steady stream of surfing/biking/boarding/skiing stunt videos... they had a very similar video of some mountain bikers doing this kind of stuff in Utah.

I think he taught my wife to drive.

I don't think the first vid is Ryan Leech...either way amazing. I spend a good 4 hours a week watching videos of freeride, downhill and street (trials). Some stuff to search for, go to www.pinkbike.com and watch the "Stund" series (5 episodes). Also a good old series was "Drop In" also on pink bike. DVD's to have...The Collective, Union, Re-Union, Earthed 1, 2, and 3. Ok if you want to know more just ask....out.

MichiganMat 11-10-2006 02:54 PM

H.D.- great link man, thanks so much for turning us on to that. The Stund vids are great.

k9handler 11-10-2006 03:01 PM

sure thing. www.ridemonkey.com is packed full as well with loads of knowledge in the forums.
