Re: MelvinsArmy out for a ride
Haha, I saw that video the other day on a bmx forum. Stoopid is the right word! No way I'd attempt to ride that thing. I'm not afraid of heights, but I am afraid of falling from high.
A couple weeks ago I rode a 54" penny farthing. That was insane. I made it about the length of 3 store fronts and hopped off, it was too hairy for me. I would try it again in an open parking lot though.
losiXXX, no way! I wouldn't even ride it down an empty drag strip with pillows on each side the entire length. Well, maybe I'd try just once.

Re: MelvinsArmy out for a ride
I'm not sure what would be scarier. Riding that bike or wearing those pants in public.

Re: MelvinsArmy out for a ride
Just think of the adrenaline rush you'll have at the other end of your journey, assuming you find a light pole at the end of the pier to land against . . .MelvinsArmy wrote:Haha, I saw that video the other day on a bmx forum.

Re: MelvinsArmy out for a ride
When I saw the end of the pier, I figured he was just going to go off the edge and land in the water at the end of his ride
Regardless, pertty cool video.
