I think that was filmed in or around Vancouver.

Pretty impressive stuff.

Amazing. I've seen some dvd's with stuff like that. One of my friends is all gung-ho about Mt. biking, he's made a bunch of videos as well. He showed me this dvd with a guy that's considered the best trials biker right now, and he was doing stuff like you saw on that video, but bigger. It was pretty cool. He even drove over a park barrier chain. The chains that link between the barriers. That was one of the coolest things

That was freaking awesome!

Here is a Corey Martinez vid I found a while back that was pretty cool. Same warning. I didn't see anything offensive on this site, but who knows.

Both those are darn impressive.
I have a guy I go to college that does that kind of stuff - which is funny as he is the most uncoordinated person I have ever met.
He will fall over walking down the stairs, but can jump from a 5ft high ledge to another 5ft high ledge 12 feet apart on his bike...

That guy was awesome. I have a mountain bike and strictyl trail ride. I can hope over some logs and stuff but not from one train track to another. Nor have I attempted to ride down a rail.
Lots of respect here.

I used to be into biking like that, I had a bunch or ramps and stuff built. But then one time I was riding in a sand pit and went off a 10 foot drop. I meant to do it but when I landed my pedal snapped and I slammed my nuts into the seat pretty hard. I quit doing that stuff right there, that was a couple years ago

Actually thinking about it now I'd love to get back into it but I just don't have the time.

The first vid is of trials style free riding, trials is some sick stuff. I've seen guys that thought nothing of riding a bike on a railing of round tube, no more than 1 3/4" in diameter. I've been riding bicycles for years, I could never do half the things in that vid.
