A thread of awesomeness

[kerndog]

Hi - I, like like quite a lot of fellow bike geeks, love looking at photo's of nice bikes, crazy mtb videos and clips of road bikers having it.

So I thought why not have a thread where people can post all and any kind of bike related awesomeness. Im talking roadies, mtb ers, bmx ers and the rest. Videos, photo's, articles/blogs/facebook group thingies, whatever. as long as its awesome its in!

I'll get the ball rolling with this little beauty:



There's a follow up, I'll find it now.

bring on the awesomeness

This isn't a Martyn Ashton thread, i just started with that one because it crosses boundary's and is very cool.

is that OK?

That truly is awesome... downright bleedin' foolish, and you won't catch me doing it anytime soon... but awesome all the same!

ok so this really is my last one for today (actually there is one more I want to pop on here if I can find it...). if you haven't seen this you need to, it makes me poo a little just watching it!



The title is 77mph, I think it's KPH, still scary quick and dangerous on a public road. Awesome though!

Ooh gotta watch that one when I get home this evening. Blocked here at work.

Have to agree with this comment:

From what I can find out those white lines are 4 meters long with a 2 meter gap
To enable you to even do 35mph you need to pass 26 in 10 seconds
Unless you have altered the speed of the playback, I can't see you have gone much over 30 ?

You need a good road surface to do that sort of speed or you take off and, steep as KP is, you'd need to pedal to overcome wind resistance. Have done over 80kph on other roads and that looks a lot slower to me. Still just 30mph down a narrow road like KP would feel fast enough!

I posted this in another thread just the other day, but I think it fits the 'awesomeness' requirements of the thread title.
Awesome countryside (which I cycle through myself, fairly regularly)
