That was insane.....awesome decent but I was all the time wondering who was going to be the one to head-butt a car/truck
Reminded me back in my youth, my 2nd bike, a heavily optioned Magnet Men's 28 inch bike with an analog speedo worked off a spindle wheel near the front hub with cable which was pretty much the same tech as a motorcycle speedo those days of the heady early 70's, going down Carnley Avenue (the Newcastle lads here will know where I mean) 3 speed Sturmy Archer hub gears with T-bar shift on the top bar wound the 50 MPH speedo off the clock going through Blackbutt reserve.....so I can relate to these guys...what a thrill!!

Yes the corner cutting wasn't good, they seemed to have vision when they did it most of the time, but I didn't pay a lot of attention.
Not ideal no. They ripped down the hill though!

How was Gavia to Bormio? When I rode down that way in June 2017, the road was in fairly poor condition, with a few too many potholes and other irregularities. Nice scenic descent, though.

Yeah, Durianrider is a bit of a clown, but sometimes you have to be a bit crazy to bat against the establishment.
Enjoyed the time he trailled Porte around for a video, and got told to p*ss off. His knowledge of old top tier bicycles is great. Kudos for going around adelaide with his trailer bicycle, bringing home ebay buys on the back. And he's a cat person too
He's starting to look a bit old though. Those low fat vegan diets aren't great for long term health, or healthy skin imho. Geez he can ride though.... my 2cents.

Chris Cox doing a review of Brisbane's bikeways.
I don't mind his channel. Pretty laid back and not particularly action packed but it's good seeing someone else's opinions on the same places I ride.
Also he often points out something that I've just put up with for years and it makes me realise 'yeah, that's not really ok'.

Some of my mates reckon he’s got a lot more fair dinkum in recent years. I haven’t seen his older vids but these days he does seem to be speaking some good hard truths, great for when you’re in the mood for an Aussie “call a spade a spade” forthright delivery !
Here’s another recent one :

Make sure you don't watch his older videos then.
Pretty hard to want to watch anything with his face on it after that.
Foo makes an assessment I concur with.

I didn't want to get banned.
He and his at the time girl friend, tried to join my FB group. First it was her, so I did some research and found that she was tied to him and blocked both.

He used to be on here quite a few years ago. I haven't seen recent content of his, but back then he was one thing, a troll. And that's one of the lower descriptions for a person.

The guy may be a tool but imagine spending the coin for an S-Works anything, and one tiny incident writes it off. And he's not inexperienced around high end carbon bikes either.
Makes me not feel so bad with my alloy roadie
