Red Bull gives you Balls not wings!

I'll be getting the DVD when it comes out, this is one of the silliest competitions out there! Last time (2004 I think it was) some chap pulled a no-hander over a 100ft canyon gap. You case that and it's a further 100ft down!

This video was on Giant's web site a while back because one of the Team Giant riders was the winner or in the top five (can't remember). After seeing the video, it reinforced my position on why I don't do MTB. At my age, a fall like that equates to a pine box. Smile

Not even "back in the day" when my hair was dark brown, would I have had the guts to even THINK about doing this. Yes, concretequeen when I took the first and only over the handlebars carried a sling on my left arm for 4 weeks. Just trying to jump a 6" curb! Never again!
