Maybe there's hope for me yet

This is a terrific pic.

Valentino Rossi's Extreme Leap Frog: Coming up next on ESPN.

Actually, I'm not sure we aren't misreading this shot. I reckon he was sat on the boot of the car in the background, it opened and catapulted him onto this handy bike what was passing, he's about to land on it and then beat Stoner by 3.7 seconds from dead last...

I reckon he is just riding past someone else's fallen bike on his massive invisible bike.

Na, its yamaha's radical new bike; pneumatic rider's saddle. Supports the rider on a cushion of air. However, like their pneumatic valves, it didnt last long before it went "pop"

I've seen stunt riding before, but to control the clutch with the heel of your left foot whilst showing off I think is amazing!

I reckon last night's chillie is coming back to haunt him!

He's so elegant, even when crashing.

Crashing? Nah, Rossi never crashes, he just finds amusing new ways to get out of the bike while parking it in awkward positions!
