Every now and then I treat my little Damiens to a youtube vid and they frequently ask me to show them around the world of biking. Danny McAskill goes down really well and is a treat the will work hard for. Today's video was:

Other videos that they love are of the Athertons in a street DH race:

Can we have a thread of awesome videos? Not the kind of thing us lot would geek out about, but quality youtube videos showing exciting riding? What videos have really impressed you?

I just used to search youtube for Danny Mac for my class - they loved it and if they were ever too noisy and I said they couldn't watch it the peer pressure to shut up was amazing!
They also liked watching the riders on the Northshore type obstacles - the higher and skinnier the better!

Surely teachers should not be using you tube videos as a bribe to get students to work.

Awesome, I'll get round to looking at some of those tonight. I'll keep my eye out for some more of the best biking vids out there and drop them here later.
