Trials With Danny MacAskill
Sheldon and I may like to ride crazy distances through varying landscapes, but when it comes to the urban jungle, trials are where it’s at. In it’s simplest form mountain bike trials are where a rider negotiates a series of obstacles without their feet touching the ground, but as you can see in this video, at an elite level, there’s a little bit more to it ;-)

Egad!!! That cat has some mad skills! I winced and clutched my nether regions when he was trying to negotiate that fence at the outset of the video . . .
