    Cool clip - takes me back 15 years when I did that kind of shit on the streets of Glasgow - the respect goes to the cameraman coz he was keeping up on 700c wheels and had drop handlebars and the guy he was filming predominanty, well he was on 26 inch low profile wheels with a stubby straight bar which would make his bike much more manoeverable.

    Probably not as high as you'd think - I've bounced off cars, been hit by buses more times than I can count and never got an injury. Got knocked off my motorbike once and still can't straighten my left leg. The inertia from the weight of a motorbike engine can cause a lot of pain but a bicycle only weighs a few kilos. If you can see that you can't get out of a situation you bunny hop 400mm or so in the air to ensure you land on TOP of the other vehicle coz you do not wanna go under anything in a city situation.

    Very cool.

    Seen the full version. IIRC it's actually from an event/race they have in New York.
