That was great.  Wish I could do that even on a BMX let alone a road bike!

Pretty cool seeing somebody do that on a road bike. There is some people out there with some unbelievable bike skills. I start panicking when I see some loose gravel on a turn.

I want to know how many wheels he tacoed making than video. I saw one set was some Mavics, but I have a hard time believing a set of Mavics can stand up to much of that. Just coming from MTB, I find it amazing the lack of rebound in anything from shocks to tires. I can bunny hop my road bike, but it is a lot of effort....for about an inch I have always loved trials riders... I honestly believe the world class guys rank right up there with world class gymnasts when it comes to body control, coordination, and balance.

He may not have messed up many, or even any.  With the stunts he did, it's possible to keep the forces much lighter than thought, but have to be really good to do it.

Is he using flats for pedals?  Thumbs down for such lack of confidence in himself.
