haha, I saw that on his first time through. He failed in my book!

That's pretty awesome though. His bike is totally caged in. They even made crash cages for the handlebars. I feel like it would have cost less just to replace the levers a few times as opposed to making cages for them, but who knows.

with all that caging, you would think he would've been stunting

It's really not that hard with practice although it looked like he was using alot of front brake which is totally the wrong way to do that. There's a guy from Florida that's an X bike officer that has a series of videos called  Ride Like a Pro. If watch these and practice some of the exercises it will totally change your riding style.

Dixie cups and sand.  
You should do it.  We'll get a game going.  Fastest one through the most cones in the smallest space gets a signed picture of Buddha.

Go to a local Skate Shop and ask for some Skate Cones - or - get hold of some old tennis balls and cut them in half  :thumb:

Tennis balls cut in half will be the cheapest option.  I can't find good cones for cheap.

That's pretty good, but I'm wondering why he pretty much posted the same video five times.

Its like an autocross for motorcycles!

I autocross with the SCCA but they won't let us take motorcycles on the course, many have tried though.  :cry:
