Awesome skills and balance !!
Wish i had a fraction of his talent, I've been known to fall off my bike in a flat trail centre car park ?

 

[Gary]

A masterclass in line choice, foot positioning and pedal stroke timing as always.

 

[Shinn]

Is it strange that all I could think of while watching this is how much I want his van?

 

[Rosemount]

Sick skills !
Dude should enter the E EWS . He would kill it in the up hill power stage .

Note the alloy bash guard on his battery / motor ?

 

[maynard]

Ye

Is it strange that all I could think of while watching this is how much I want his van?

Yes

 

[maynard]

Who needs a trail ? Just ride up the river . WtF . What a freak

 

[Blue Moon]

WOW.
Maybe one day? Nah, doubt it, too old.

 

[Hobo Mikey]

Awesome bike skills. So glad after all the training I give him it turned out good. Oh I just woke up.

From his previous results in DH and the Mega Chris'd have a pretty good shot at doing seriously well on every stage.

I was inspired by the vid .
He`s a fit and strong man . How old is he Gary ?

 

[R120]

The mans just a beast, and has a level of bike control few people can touch. One thing I have always loved about him is that he has ridden bikes in his vids over the last decade that most of us would turn our noses up at, and done incredible things on them, and it kinda puts into perspective that a good rider on a well set up bike is way better than any fancy geo or componentry at the end of the day - I mean how many of us would dismiss that GT as meh? let alone the mongooses he used to ride.

He must be amazingly strong. All that bike lifting he did over the karst landscape exhausted be just watching it.

Brilliant camera work too. Must have an excellent drone pilot. I don't think drone AI is up to that quality yet.

Top man , Old Skool and here is one from 2010 , Check out the peak cap protective headwear

Mr Akrigg introduces the first "upcountry" bike!
Marketing boffins, you heard it first here on Pinkbike!

LOL !

 

[Pennine]

He used to work at my LBS in Keighley - nice guy.

 

[TheBikePilot]

That’s a racing drone with a GoPro strapped to it. Brilliant camera work, looks like a gimbal for a lot of the other shots with the guy running. Bet they were tired after that..!! Top work..

 

[downhilllister]

Not just your average rural delivery guy.

 

[HinduKush]

I would pay to see Chris and Danny MacAskill do an ebike demo. Two awesome talents on two wheels.

 

[micromental]

I’m looking for places and people to ride with in keighley due to me recently moving here
