    Havn't got time to see the vid, but in europe there was a sport where people race litre bikes (and other sizes) around the mini car training circuits (these are street layouts, but only 1/4 size) in amongst that lot are obsticle courses that you have to negotiate - also requires a bit of stunting ability as some of the gaps are too small to get the bike thru. They are all time based, not one on one and I can remember having a go on one that required a 90 degree turn during a stoppie to get thru the two cones.

    Havn't seen anything here. I suppose thats why no-one has any road bike skills

    Nope, but it is shortened a little to help with the stoppie.

    no, front wheel drive still, but nothing in the back and all the weight at the front. Then big grippy wheels (can you say grippy?) on the front and skinny nothings on the back.. Hey presto - a stoppie..
