That's awesome!

Some people way too close to the line though; over-hanging it etc.

Bloody hell! Does he jump a dog at around 25sec in???

Not on the same scale in any way, but there's been one in Edinburgh city centre before: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NXIzKej4C8 - mostly steps but pretty mental all the same.

Loved the Dog jump (about 25-28secs in) :-)

What an amazing(ly dangerous) event, clearly little or no H&S issues with the town council there!

when it comes to dogs, seems that mtb racing is a lot safer than road racing!

How he managed to get through some of those tiny little gaps I have no idea.

With the width of my bars, I'm sure I'd be smashing my knuckles into the posts on pretty much all of em, biggrin
