Danny MacAskill new vid - set for a million views in 4 days

Aye, the lad's fair enough on a bike, but in 1975 I could pull a wheelie on a Raleigh Chopper with a gob full of Moondust and still look casual.

35 years ago, Danny. OWNED.

Was in the pub last week talking with some friends about road cycling and keeping fit.   A buxom young lass sidled up later and asked if she could see my Chopper.  Some people are real dumb - who the hell would do a lot of roadwork on a bike that has one wheel much bigger than the other?

That was the whimsical delight of the Chopper, Nooky. Anything above walking pace ensured a shattering crash that catapulted you through the handlebars as the central gear shift tore your knackers off.

It's all elbow and knee pads and crash helmets nowadays. When I was a fresh-faced young road warrior, you staggered into the local casualty department on a Saturday afternoon carrying your teeth in one hand and your scrotum in the other and you were still home in time for The Goodies.

Vintage stuff Orioles

Thanks for the heads up. Good video :)
