    He's obviously got talent and imagine what he could do with a proper machine. Some drop from saddle to handlebars too.

    Maybe one of the roadie fraternity could try to even up the score by winning Red Bull Rampage on a road bike?
    (Just noticed, Lacondeguy and Zink both ride Panzers 8) )

    FWIW, Kyle Strait's run was spot on. Didn't he miss out last year despite a 360 on the ramp?

    Have you been on the home page of BR by any stretch of the imagination? (shyte soundtrack)

    I'll have to take a look at the Kyle Strait run - you seem to know more than me about RBR!

    Yes - saw the McAskill video last night - impressive, but also stunning camera work and brings back a few memories of visiting Skye and the Cullins when I was 16 (not on a bike...)

    Impressive but obviously a puff piece for Whyte bikes, so probably staged.

    Apols - it was McGarry that got silver despite the 70ft back flip (and other flips)

    I've been hibernating since this article was written. Only the mention of it could bring me out of my slumber.

    That or a rabbit gifting me an alarm clock.

    I apologise.

    That's a really interesting photo.

    Is that ironstone strata from the Upper Pliensbachian (Domerian) universal stage? :D

    It is a Paleozoic strata consisting of (in reverse chronological order): Kaibib limestone, Coconino sandstone, Hermit shale, a Toroweap formation, a Supai formation, Redwall limestone and temple butt limestone right through to the Tonto group - 515 to 545 million years old. What puzzled me was which of these layers caused the damage as they are all relatively soft?

    Unlike BB's infestation of mud-eaters, I'll bet that he doesn't need a van to get up a hill. :roll:

    Given the mix of regulars in here is more MTB than roadie these days, it actually looks like BB has an infestation of lycra bandits :wink:
