Is this you? Or just taken off of youtube somewhere?
How are you supposed to keep from falling flat on your ass with all the rocks and whatnot on the trail? There are also some parts where it looks like your front tire could EASILY wedge itself and send you flying...Not to mention loosing it on the loose dirt and gravel around corners? How does shit like this work, it amazes me how any of that was possible at those speeds O.O
That video really makes me want to ride a bike.
That was orgasmic.
And he used a high quality camera to boot!

That's what I was thinking. His bike has shock suspension (like a rally car, lol) and he's putting all of his weight on the back portion on his bike so that he doesn't hit a snag. Doing that also lets you launch off of some rocks.
Theres just no way I would do that. I mean he must be a pro because if that were me I would have busted my ass easily. I ride bikes on trails but nothing like this. Cool.

Well, it is a [B]pro[/B] rider.
But holy shit! My jaw was hanging most of that ride and I could just feel the entire ride.
I would be too scared to attempt it. I have enough of a hard time riding on a sidewalk and not hitting a bush.
brb shitting self
Another amazing HD video -

I rode a bike in the woods once and went through a spider web with a giant spider on it.

Oh god thats even worse :byodood:
Brb, riding bike. Actually we have something much like that here in Idaho. Quite a few actually

Yeah, it's amazing
At Start: "Oh this doesn't look so - *HUGE BLIND DROP* [B]HOLYFUUUUUUCUCUUCUCCJJJJKKFSHJKDJKLSFHKLJSHDF[/B]!!!!11"
My mom lives right near there. She can literally see the mountain from her window. It's pretty awesome. I want to go up there and snowboard one year. That mountain is incredible.
beautiful scenery but besides that I frequent trails much more difficult than that on a motorbike
Makes me want to try something like that too. That guy is awesome :v:
I would go to Oregon, BUT IM ALREADY HEERRRRE! haha. I live a like 2-3 hours away from hood.
Holy shit, the second half of the video was intense.
Brb, building house with the bricks I just shat.
I live in Oregon, it really is a beautiful place. There's mountains like that one around where I live, I should really go on more bike rides like this guy.

Of course I might die going down as fast as he did.

I like how he still keeps going with no problem even when it gets extremely bumpy and rocky.

I live in Idaho, too many bike riders if you ask me.
I don't really think I could ride downhill at such speeds, it looks to crazy for me.
I would be scared shitless
These guys have balls of steel, I tried this once through a forest going about half the speed of that guy and I've never been so scared in my entire life.
Woah it's more tense than a roller coaster simulator :o
i would love to do this but i would end up getting myself killed
how he doesn't slide out on those turns i will never know
I wish that helmetcam had a speedometer

I googled mountain bikes, and what i found for bikes with a full suspension will empty your wallet's about $4,000 USD...Pretty penny to kill yourself eh?
