Kind of makes you wonder why we bother with mountain bikes at all! Awesome. I need slimmer tyres......

Way back when my son and his friends were still riding BMX bikes, I took them on a tour of some local trails.  My bike at the time was the Bianchi 748 Rekord I had converted to fixed gear.  Not so good for the technical parts but never wasted a rim.

I hopped my road bike up on to an 18" curb once.  I had extra motivation since a city bus was intent on occupying the space I was in.  That sob didn't leave any space once he moved over on me.
