yeah, proper nutter!  :shock:
Is it really an adventure bike if its wheels never see dirt?

Holy Crap!! Made my butt pucker just watching it!

OK - is it just me, or does the front wheel appear to NOT be turning ?? Don't want to take anything away from the "significant accomplishment" but my skeptical riding partner had same reaction. Maybe small 'ski' under front tire we cant see?

it's turning ...it;s the effect of frame rate of the video and the speed which the wheel is turning , gives a strobe effect to the spokes
and on another note the fisheye lens perspective makes it look knarlier than it really is . :shock:

Thanks Mustang - looked too real to be fake...but couldnt reconcile front wheel phenomenon. 'Fish eye' effect may distort ridge - but still way too narrow & steep for this wuss! I want to live to ride & fish. Oh yeah...my wife seems profess similar intersts, as my retirement checks cease when I croak.
