I find that using the AOL browser does not allow me to post a link in the BFN link posting protocol. SO, I just post the link by typing it in the reply window. Was that what you were trying to do? Perhaps other browsers have the same characteristics. I can use the protocol if I sigm in under IE, however.

If you want to email me or PM the URL, I will post it.

Seems to be blocked here for some reason. You can copy and pate the URL from the OP. Most of us have seen this already. It is funny, but it has made the rounds here before.

It's an older video but it still makes me laugh. Try pasting the url into a new browser tab, that worked for me.

And get out his new video for the Mountain Bike crowd called "Get Dirty" at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ru2Dpe1LkNU

"Performance" is good but it's old news. "Get Dirty" is new to me and is a hoot. I've had every crash the video shows (without benefit of doing the really cool stuff) which is why my mountain bike is gathering rust right now.

I had not seen Get Dirty either... it is a big hoot agreed. I have not had those crashes though. I was always a careful and deliberate little boy!
