OK, if it doesn't have anything to do with touring ... what is it? I'm not about to click a video link without having something of an intro to what it is about.

It has nothing to do with bike touring. It's Danny Macaskill bouncing off of stuff on his mountain bike.

At least some of his other videos showcase amazing destinations, like the one he did in Ireland. This one is just an old mill or something. Not sure why it's on this forum.

Ah ... thanks for the description. Probably not worth using up internet resources opening it then.

Oh and don't say 'No haters please' and post on an internet forum. That's like going to the beach and complaining because there's sand!

Danny MacAskill is an absolute top notch bike stuntman. His fitness level, courage and dedication to bicycle parkour is nothing short of awe inspiring.

I love his stuff and thanks for posting!

Not a mountain bike, per se, I think.

I guess none of you have seen any of the videos of Peter Sagan "using his bike incorrectly". Playing golf by hitting the ball with the rear wheel only, riding the bike up the hood of the car on to the roof mounted tray. The lists goes on.

These things apparently go against "The Rules" so you must be Sagan haters too. Sagan plays by his own rules and seems to do okay.
