oh I saw that on youtube. It was hilarious. The intersections were awkward though, because he can't come to a full stop. would've been more hilarious if he had trainer wheels, just for the hell of it.

That is terrifying. I especially love catching his shadow in some of the shots. That is nuts, I hate heights!

I'm leaning towards: fake.
1. Not enough people are looking up. For example, wouldn't the traffic cop look up if he saw it?
2. The cheering doesn't match the video.
3. I could barely ride my bike that slowly at intersections.
OTOH, the shadow does match...

How the hell is he able to stop if he cant put out his leg, or we would just tuble over to the side and crush the ants (smaller bikers)

My guess is that some of the other bikes ride alongside of him and steady him when he has to stop.
It kind of brings to mind a Russian dude who built a tall bike that sprung up and down. So when he wanted to stop, he dropped, while he was riding, he was up. Ah, here he is.
