Running the Baja 1000 is definitely on my bucket list!
Yea i seen that the other day....makes me want a dirtbike real bad...
Not gona lie, I love riding motor bikes, blasting through the woods on something with balls is fun.
They have also broken my arm twice, split my big toe, fractured my elbow, fracture my hand and broke my neck (fractured C4) in addition to many scrapes bruiser gashes etc etc.
So the common sense part of my brain that has been slowly winning over the dumb part that likes to go faster and that says to stay with the relatively safe sport of DH :)
Cos I know I'm not goint to be happy unless I'm on a 250 smoker or a 450-600 thumper with work done on the motor and I know the first thing my right hand will do is hit the throttle end stop.
Wild!

brake jack in action...
i've watched a couple.
Our network security folks are crying about the video streaming that is going on so i am trying to keep it to a minimum.
not sure if anyone watched that last one of the arizona trails, at first I was thinking he's going a bit slow, but then you realize the consequence of failure... several hundred feet in the valley bellow is a rock that would hurt...
There are other vids in his vimeo link where the trail goes around these prickly ball like things growing out of the ground... weird.
edit:
this vid... http://vimeo.com/3446704
Thats a pretty wild trail
I'm going to talk to the manager of HFX shopping center on my way home tonight.
You have no idea how tempted I've been to rip though there on the way to work one morning... like in one side and out the other before anyone even knows whats up. However my balls are too small for such a task...
when i lived in brunswick towers and worked down town, i used to rip through scotia square on my skateboard almost everynight. the fun part is when you get close to the security desk.
we used to skateboard through westend/halifax shopping center back in the day, good times.
the old west end mall had sweet benches back in the day, plus the security was lax in comparison to hfx shopping center, which also had some hoss spots both inside and outside. the scotia square run we used to do started with a 6 set in both directions and the old wooden benches around the fountain slid and grinded like butter. plus the securiturds were fat and out of shape.
yeah my hfx shopping center route (lol) would start at the entrance by the juice bar/taylors, cut throgh the food court, jump the little stairs, down the escalators by the rbc, out the front... you'd be in and out pretty quick...
if you can do it with a no handed cat walk, i'll give you a medal. bleed kit? ahem hint hint?
I asked and he has forgotten... I will continue to harrass!
epic... 16min DH run?!
So you think you can ride???
