You don't see that everyday...a OTB going uphill.

That's what he gets for riding crackandfails. Truth be told, that dude
could make any bike ride well though.

The guy is strong. I can't get my bike that high off the ground in the
front.

Is it wrong to ask for a spotter when trying something difficult? If I
knew someone would spot me I would be more apt to try maneuvers like that.

Is it wrong for a grown man to ask to try on
panties at Macy's?

Depends (pardon /that/ expression) on whether he's already in drag.

The only drag I do is dragging my ass.

Sir Ride A Lot you could train for that on high sidewalk crubs. They
maybe hard to find but they are around.

Macys you say, there 3 to 4 men in drag that come in and try on things
in the female fitting rooms and use the ladies rest rooms also. Their
old Filene's shoppers and one has hit up on a male co worker that works
in men suits. Ever seen a man in drag mountain biking I have and it was
on a night ride a few years back,same dude looks like a lady was seen
in the bars dating back 10 years.

Very cool. You can clearly see what he was attempting to do and he was
totally committed to the move. He'll own it next time.

Pete, anytime you want to make another climbing video it's good with me.
Your first is the only footage that I've seen that makes climing look
exciting. I love tech climbing lines like at SoMo.

Wow, I didn't realize he slammed that hard when I was standing right there.
That was a deceptively hard move and I tried really hard not to become a
clip like this (but also never made it, damn it).

Being the skeptic I am.....though this guy is good on a picnic table......he
probably couldn't have made the xc ride to this point.

Hell, there used to be a ladies ride in Fruita where men could attend
if they wore a skirt and body glitter. I wore a coral pink skirt that
kept crotch bungeeing at very inopportune moments.

I bet Kevin could do it.

[censored], I could have gone over the bars.........and probably would have if I
had been able to get to that point....which I probably wouldn't have.....but
I would have tried.

No way I would have tried coming down it, though.

Huh? Down looks easier. Figure it this way... Going up you break your
face open and going down you wreck your shoulder again. Seems like a
win/win to me. 😉

What's on the down side? Does it go into an immediate turn? You could
probably just sail off the top step provided there was no edge of death
after it.

I bet you could too.

I would even bet I could, but for some reason that day I couldn't. I
guess I haven't done much technical riding since last summer. That's my
excuse this time anyway.

I did do it down and it was much easier. Pretty much a straight shot,
but with a couple of cracks you'd want to keep your wheel out of.

Cristiano Santos, world class competition trials rider. He definitely can do
it with his eyes closed.
