He's a really nice guy as well, and our local "celebrity". He was doing some filming outside our shop a couple of months back, as he is from Dunvegan, and I gather he used to practice on the raised flower beds outside. Some of the bits of the ridge I wouldn't want to walk never mind ride on a bike.
Totally agree, the guy is amazing. I'm not sure why he's done this crazy ridge riding thing where the margin of safety is zero and your options are get down on this path or die. Is this a trend where thrill seeking junkies need to push boundaries or society demands more crazy s
t? Or am I just a soft middle aged old fart who worries about his 4 year old son growing up thinking this is acceptable and achievable?
