Yes, amazing, isn't it. Danny Macaskill is well known for this kind of stunts, but this one really is superb. The guy rides his bike on places I don't even dare to walk. Great video!

You noticed that, did you? It's a glaring omission. I sort of thought at the end, when he sat on the high-tide shore looking out, he was wondering where his boat went. Plus, did you see how SLOW it was moving when he rowed it? Sheesh... OUR little dory can go 5x that speed easily :-)

Wow, that was great. Half expected him to ride the bike off that summit and somehow manage to land it and ride away unscathed. The front flip from the fence was really cool, never seen anything like that before.

yes, that occurred to me later, that his bonny boat, forelorned, had forsaken him. not to worry: with a few modifications he'll soon be speed-biking across the sea from Skye.

Meh...since they jackhammered my street for repaving almost two months ago and left it that way...that's just like my daily ride ;)
