    5. Figures.

    So is he an inmate?

    Anyone know exactly what trail this is? My boss and his brothers now want to ride this trail.

    The camera distorts this tremendously.

    Even though it's pretty interesting, It's not nearly as gnarly as this footage makes it look.

    There are plenty other videos of this floating around out there.

    I wouldn't ride it on MY 1200 ............. but I'd ride it on YOUR 450! :lol3

    Still cool, huh?

    I think it's a pretty gnarly video regardless!

    I know that'd be intimidating on a mountain bike much less a 300+ lb motorcycle :eek1
