I'll download them overnight.

Can't you compress them more? I'll take a look when I get them tomorrow anyways.

Bender is freakin crazy!!!

That second clip is just hilarious The love doll has one hell of a ride! The looks on people's faces were great! Wheelieing down SF! That takes some skill and guts!

Sure would suck to have 56k!

gotta love a fast cable connection... I let my two boys, pert near 8 and 12 watch and was a little concerned at first but they were in awe...... How in the hell does that guy wheelie like that********************???
And those drops.. seems to me that it's still a suspension issue with the landings.. too many G relative to time.
At any rate, good show

Hmm, whatever happened to Bobby Root? He rides manuals just as easily as if he were on two wheels.

As for Bender, i reckon it might be his dropping style that is preventing him from landing the jaw drop- back wheel way too earlier than the front.

Oh hell yeah...stapfam and expatriate are probably flipping out over the tandem stuff.

I used to have an erstwhile g/f that looked just like that stoker...

I forget which one but he was in a movie I recently bought. Still only doing wheelies and manuals. But still alive anyways.

No prob guys, glad some people can appreciate it. People have been asking for that first clip for ages.

I posted it in tandem. No ones flipping, in fact it seemed to piss people off. Definately taking life toooooo seriously in that lane of life. If I ever get a tandem I hope I don't become a tandem rider

Pretty cool videos. I wonder how fast those cars were going for that guy to pass them riding a wheelie?

I got the videos to 7 MB and 9 MB without much quality loss, but I don't really feel like uploading them...

I just didn't feel like playing with the compression. 20 megs takes minutes...no biggy.

Oh he holds the world record for a manual. I know he can go upwards of 60miles and hour. This is nwdII so it doesn't have his world record attempt
