I'm old enough to think that it's great when I get some air - that stuff is pretty amazing.
The 'made' tracks get pretty elaborate. One of my mates has just got back (well, a couple of weeks ago) from Canada. He's already looking for a job in Vancouver. :wink:
Litespeed Classic - 3Al/2.5V titanium tube set, Record 9-speed groupset, Open Corsa Evo CX
Alchemy Diablo - Columbus Zonal tubing, Ultegra 9-speed groupset, UltraGatorskins
Gitane Rocks T1 - U6 tubing, Deore/XT groupset, CrossMarks

They play the DVD of the first one there in my LBS on a big screen sometimes.

The downhill crash I hadn't seen but it's scary, frame just snaps. Probably worse because it's a Y frame so there is only one bar connecting the front to back.

OUCH! :shock:

I'm shocked that his helmet came off :? I suppose the bike and helmet just wasn't designed to go 170km/h or take such an impact.

I'll take the chicken line on those doubles thanks.

The skinnies and steeps look like heaven.
