I suppose it would come in handy if he ever had to chase a bunch of armed robbers round an obstacle course :lol:

I always understood that those kinda Bikes, despite there size, are *extremely* well balanced and easy enough to chuck around like that.

I'm a bit surprised they made such a song and dance about that time trial, sure it's impressive I suppose but the amount of people involved....and the spectators....and the scoring panel... :roll: I bet they were 'whooping' all the way home that day :roll: maybe its my age but I'm very difficult to impress at the moment, now if he'd have fallen off then......... :mrgreen:
