Insane. Stunning video too.

I'm sure I've seen that bloke climb an indoor climbing wall on a bike or something else mad

My heart was in my mouth all the way down. Absolute nutter and a stunningly skilful rider.

That was insane, that man has got some large testicles and it was beautifully shot as well.

Another great clip. He is mad though, and getting older. I bet it hurts more now when he falls off.

Don't see what all the fuss is about, I could do that on a Raleigh chopper ��. Just kidding of course, I would like a 10th of his talent ... not to mention his ⚽️⚽️. Unbelievable control, if I can jump a kurb on my Kona without serious injury occurring I count myself lucky.

Te behind the scenes of his 'Wee day out' video is epic, especially when you see how he rides through the 'puddle'

Very entertaining, especially watching the 'making of' videos where you see some of the mishaps and retakes. You also get to see how many people are involved in making one of those videos.

Then there's the Scottish weather. There can only be so many days in a year when it's sunny enough to film and still enough to fly the drone cam.

All in all I'm impressed both with the biking skills and the organisation needed to put it all together.
