either broken link or the vids been removed
Edit: sorry it does work, might just be me but I found I had to click a different video then this one for it to load.

Cool video, bike doesn't look bad for a tenere either.

Nice! Just shows, it's not about having a small bike, it's about having the balls to match the bikes size.

Bit buggered if he comes off though eh!

Looks a lot of fun, but then that bike looks slightly happier doing that stuff than, say, an SV would

Can't argue with the skills there - urban enduro is a pretty accurate summary. In addition to that, if you put the mahoosive panniers on and ride like that, there's probably a decent career in thievery for you

Totally irresponsible, bad Health and Safety, bad for the image of biking. I like it, buy that man a beer.

That's why those adventure bikes have 10 feet of suspension travel. To be honest, I was surprised the second pass wasn't partially airborne.

21 inch front wheel (27 inches by the time you count the tyre) helps a lot with stairs as well.
