Uhhhh . . . ya, I would.
This was Alex Morgan boosting his BCD Inedible (a bike he hand-built). BCDs were burly-tough and super-light. They really were the most cobby, incredible machines I've had the pleasure of seeing up-close.
The bcd Racing frame looks as cobby as my first light build. It'd be awesome if it was the fastest one of the bunch. Meh...wagon wheels.
Alex was pretty fast on those wagon wheels. He took 3rd at the 2005 Masters Worlds and a respectable 19th in the Elite (pro) at the '07 National at Angel Fire. Seeing first-hand just how much punishment his creations could take without a whimper made me a believer in the toughness of CF.
