Watch This!

The muscles this kid must have. The scrapes. The bruises. I'd like to know more about his bike. It's not fixed-gear, as he coasts sometimes. But it also appears that he pedals himself backwards at times. There must be some way that he shifts between freewheeling and fixed-gear. Hat tip: Scott.

Whoa.

It's the inside of his mind I'd like to know more about. He must have a capacity for steely focus and concentration and daring that I can't even imagine.

Half of what he did -- well, no, just about all of it -- is plainly impossible.

This was awesome. The only thing I've ever seen like it was a section of a performance by Cirque du Soleil done on these bikes. I think they had safety nets though.

I love the flip off the tree. It makes it hard to watch Hans Rey or Ryan Leech now.

Whoa, yeah, the Jackie Chan Off a Tree On a Bike was the best trick.

What city is he in? Somewhere in Scotland maybe?
