I caught this video online today and I wondered how dangerous the rest of you are when it comes to biking. I prefer street or dirt but nothing like these guys do.

Not something I would do. But I have seen people on trails where the margin for error is even less, although the consequences not quite that severe. Seems like that is putting a lot of trust in a 3/8 inch bolt (front axle)

Used to do it. I lived though and now I don't want to anymore. They say youth is wasted on the young but I have to disagree. If I still possessed my youth with the wisdom I have accumulated, there is no way I would have done some of the things I did. So much the pity.
