anyone else notice that most of that footage was from an old Animal video? I think it was “Can I eat”. I know I’ve seen most of the Hamilton stuff, and the Edwin DeLa Rosa? segment at PNC park really gave it away. god I wish I still had a bike and the cahones to do something… ---

ah the h8t3rs emerge 😃 handling a 50lb downhill rig 20-30mph down and over jumps takes way more balls, strength, and Skillz than a 15lb bmw swinging around a park bench. ---

Some of the most gnar crashes I’ve ever seen are TdF crashes. And downhill, on asphalt, at 50+mph on skinny tires is pretty rad. However, this dude does some absolutely sick fakie, gap, and ramp lines. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-uj7NN0Tu9A&feature=related](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-uj7NN0Tu9A&feature=related) ---
