Mate you haven't given trials a bad name at all, you've shown just how great trials can be.

When are you going to be on TV3 because that better be recorded for all to see?

Or you could go with TV3 and get their lawyers to support you if you have to defend yourself.

If the old timers are right and it was done before on a motorbike then I'd be interested in what precedent was set then. Personally I'd love to see the video.

Funny stuff this.

Good luck and hopefully you'll re-visit the TV3 thing. I can't see how being on TV3 will make things worse. Clearly there is already enough proof.

The only thing I can see is if you publisize it more the police may choose to deal to it on that basis. It'd be great to see what the legal opinions are.

Well done. Insane. But well done.

If people keep prodding him, he just might. They don't tolerate this sort of crap forever. One day they will respond. And they will win.

The old bridge over the Manawatu had arches like that bridge. Back when I was at Massey I used to walk over that bridge at night. Thought I was pretty cool.

No freakin' way I would ever ever ever be able to (or dare to) do that on a bike.

So whatever else, that was quite some combination of skill and balls.

If the powers don't want the stunt repeated, they could put chunky things on the bridge, like those studs the council puts on benches to stop skateboarders.

But they can make the Mormon Few pay for them.

P.S. Wheelies are cool.

(Another thing i can't do.)
