    One of the best things I have watched for ages. His earlier video is also worth a gander.

    Incredible skills.

    What you don't see is the replacement wheels and frame after every stunt.

    You saying road stuff just can't cope with a bit of rough riding? Should get a hybrid... ;-)

    Ah but epic fail at the end really cleaning a bike with wd40 and a carbon one - shocking

    That is awesome.

    That was brilliant :)

    WD40 was odd though!

    Didn't spot what was being used to do the cleaning, only who was doing it...... :wink:

    My first thought when I saw the cleaning with WD40 was "I take it WD40 have put money into it" as there is a product shot at the start of the video as well.

    Obviously WD40 sponsored the film.

    Amazing balance and bike control as always......

    Excellent, the thought of some of the drops made me feel dizzy though, I am a big jessie. Probably just as well Rick is on holiday as he'd make comments about the bike being strong because it's heavy.
    I think I'd let those two clean my bike with just about anything.

    I would have stayed on the bike and got cleaned with it.

    Everyone knows baby wipes are then only approved way to clean a carbon bike

    Annoyingly, I read that in a Bridget Jones internal voice. Best go & re-watch Expendables 2 to counter such.

    Does this make Martyn Ashton a better trials rider than Danny mac? Seeing as he's got the skills on a road bike too!
