A lad having fun on his bike.<\/h3>\n<p>  This was filmed on Dartmoor, I believe, which we visit on our Devon tour.  <\/p>\n<p>Skip past the first 30 seconds where a teenager tries to be cool without realising how stupid teenagers appear to grown-ups.  <\/p>\n<p>Then indulge him for a further 30 seconds of &#8216;outtakes&#8217; where you can see the stunts going a little bit wrong.  But then watch the final 4 minutes in open-mouthed amazement at the stupidity, the bravery and the beauty of youth!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/2924815\" width=\"400\" height=\"321\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/vimeo.com\/2924815\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Brakeless Two \/ Chris Akrigg<\/a> from <a href=\"http:\/\/vimeo.com\/user1089639\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">chris akrigg<\/a> on <a href=\"http:\/\/vimeo.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Vimeo<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>3.  What can I say about this video? <\/h3>\n<p> Can you ride a bike backwards, on one wheel, with your sister stood on your shoulders?  No?  This German girl can, and so can her sister.  <\/p>\n<p>Astonishingly, if you look closely, it appears there are some empty seats in the arena.  That is just too disrepectful. <\/p>\n<p>THIS is what can be done on a bike, and it&#8217;s simply amazing.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"480\" height=\"390\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Y9mJ2hXryGc\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1.
