fk me.

[spikeyplanet]

I need some of those anti-gravity tires... and a HUGE amount of skill.

Does he have a scouting party to seek out all those 'launch ramp' trees?

[option click]

amazing, as usual!

My current fave is the Scotland roadtrip one 'Back home' - it's beautifully produced

[Twincharged]

I'm still wondering how those cranks work; two way freewheel?

It's just a normal freehub/crank with bashring

Nope, just got to back pedal when going backwards.

That's another great video and London is such a massive urban playground it'd be good to see even more from him in this city.

Amazing... Love his work.

I need to get back on my little bike.

I used to be able to do skids and the wheelie.

Ah yeah, I see now- just noticed he is actually pedalling all the time he is going backwards; I thought I'd seen him freewheeling.

Is it just me who winces for his knees when he does a big drop off onto a concrete slab?

His Way Back Home video is good.

Your knees are ok... its your ankles that bloody hurt (for me anyway).

Anything over 10ft, and I'd have to hop off the bike as soon as I had landed and jump around like a tool (this was when I was young and skillful...stupid).

I can only do skids now
