Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Insane bike handling skills video

Same type of video as the "Road Bike Party" series but this guy is more impressive IMO.

Seems like a promotional video for the Tinkoff training camp:

Pretty cool but the RBP guys put more tricks per minute into their video. Watching a guy ride down MTB trails on a road bike isn't really that awe-inspring. The stuff where he rides on the pool and into the gym were pretty funny.

Have you ever ridden a CX bike on trails? It's HARSH. Riding a road bike on them would be even worse with the smaller tires.

OK, but riding on a harsh trail doesn't rise to "holy cow look at that!". Also on the video there was a family happily riding down the same trail on their mountain bikes.

It looked like some cgi going on in the gym and pool area. Maybe not but it looked that way.

Riding and balancing on that rail next to the steep (presumably) drop was a holy cow look at that!

But yeah, RBP videos are awesome.

These things should all be subtitled "How to tell somebody doesn't pay for his own wheels"

You're joking right...
There is no way this video surpasses the Road Bike Party series, especially Road Bike Party 2 which is still second to none really.
Brumotti's video is impressive, absolutely, but not even as good as what GCN has put out with Road Bike Party.
Just. No. Way.

I loved them both, but Road Bike Party 2 was the clear winner.

I wouldn't call that insane. It's better than I could do for sure, but I've seen many better video clips.
