Maybe you’re a fan, but I still can’t quite figure out the tall bike craze. These people can’t figure it out either. How to ride one, I mean.
From Ben: (It’s dark, but you can hear and see the fall in the last couple seconds.)

With the right gear, bicycling in the snow isn’t the worst of ideas. Without the right gear, and with a bit too much pride, those who try will probably end up like these guys.
From Rob: (The backyard bicycle snow ramp is not the best snow ramp.)
From Keith: (This… Read the rest

Yes indeedy, it’s time for this week’s installment of Wipeout Wednesday, your one stop shopping on the innernets for thrills, chills and spills. Why revel in failure? Well, because it’s fun. This week’s theme? Downhill mountain bike crashes. It’d be unethical for me to pick my favorite in the intro,… Read the rest
