Parkour on Two Wheels: Danny MacAskill Rides a Bike

Most of us can ride bikes, but I bet you not like Inspired Bicycles team rider Danny MacAskill. Here's a video tape of a collection of what can only be described as parkour on two wheels: Link

Kids, don't try this at home. Or on the streets, either.


Actually, Parkour is a relatively new sport when compared to bicycle trials riding. So to call this Parkour on wheels is like describing surfing as "snowboarding, but on the beach".

Ive watched this about six times since yesterday morning. Brings back a lot of childhood memories of just how liberating it was to simply ride. My first backflip was, admittedly, an accident.

Ah, this is so awesome! Makes me want to save up some cash and purchase myself a bike to travel about Toronto. Feel that cool air and the freedom of the streets. :)

Wowwww you are the best biker ive seen to this day. It's amazing the things you can do on two wheels. Let alone just one of them. Keep on doing what youre doing man.

What kind of tires are those? To take that kind of pounding without blowing has to be something non-traditional. If that was a usual bike, it'd have a seat, and he'd be popping more than tires.

What came first? Trials? Or Parkour?

I actually wrote a post about this very question today on my blog (linked above)! It gets more "old school" than you might think and it gives props to Neatorama for being not just a fun site, but a fun comunity as well.
