Works now - must have been work firewall. So is this so you don't have to leave the house in order to get your crabbing or fishing on?

I thought that was the whole point...getting out of the house! :lol:

:blink: I would have never guessed you could pull off some of those stunts with a road bike. Especially not a lightweight Tour bike. Would have expected to see the wheel crumple a few times with those drops. Wonder how many wheels at a minimum he destroyed.

Tire pressure looked quite a bit lower and a lot of the moves didn't involve truly hard drops. Most of them have some run off. Imagine a jump with a flat level landing on the other side vs one with a landing ramp. Keep the force moving forward, not down.

Well, it was the straight drop offs near the end that caused me to question whether he destroyed a wheel. I know there are some very strong rim spoke combinations so I wouldn't be totally surprised if he did it without destroying any wheels.
