Very cool, but just think how quickly he could do that run on drops

That is definitely not a commute you could afford to do after a couple of cheeky post-work ales.

PS. Although I am a big fan of Radiohead, that really is a song to chuck yourself off a cliff to.

This guy was going fast on flats. Until erm, you will see

@SS: somehow I knew something like that would happen !

@JG: your MTB worls speed record link looks like the 'Flying Kilometre' at Les Arcs where they go for the ski speed records. Never seen it on a bike before - apparently the top section is 45 degrees :shock:
