Thats a slow Tuesday commute  :chuckle:  very impressive, wish I had the beans to do something like that. My sense of self preservation is a little to strong.
I hunt, therefore I am.... I fish, therefore I lie.

I have this strange feeling that if I tried to do a front flip over a fence like that it wouldn't go quite the same :chuckle: :bdid:

Yeah, I think I'll pass on that.  I'm not one fir heights and I'm too fat for what he does.  Really cool on how he crossed the fence.  How many times was that shot?

I watched a youtube video about the fence flip and it took quite a few tries. He even put pads down at first. His bike took some abuse on the first few tries. :chuckle:
