"Ride the Ridge" from Danny MacAskill
Bike Mag ^

Posted on 12/03/2014 5:16:35 PM PST by West Texas Chuck

I have posted some of this cat's stuff before, some of you may have seen it.

As a cyclist I respect his skills, as a man I respect his courage, as an adventurer I respect his love of his land.

Live long and prosper my brother. You Da Man, man!

I'm not saying he's an alien, but HE'S A FREAKING ALIEN!

I'm just happy to see him on a mountain bike instead of his usual trials bike, and a sweet bike he is using in this vid. Guy is crazy capable, and if you see an interview with him he seems like a normal and humble dude. But he never ceases to amaze me with his instincts and athleticism.

At least he’s not wearing that faggy spandex most bikers seem to love.

I wear faggy spandex sometimes, but the younger mountain biking community mostly stays more in the world of baggy shorts and stuff a little more relaxed.

I hear ya though, you should see me in my bike panties ;)

As a person who seeks to improve, and respects biking skills, this guy is a god to me.

That is with a little "g".
