Anyone else here use a bike to get to their fishing?


I wish the 20 inch wheel had been around when I was a lad learning to ride a bike.

Have to say that is very impressive, however, I would love to watch the out takes when it all went horribly wrong, and there WILL be a few I bet.

That guy can ride a bike.I liked the bit at Pipeline.Kinlochleven.which is probably one of the most famous Motorcycle trials section of all time.just for a bit of history.The bit at Edinburgh castle was pretty cool.I wonder if he just chanced it,or got permission.
