Picked up this clip on a South African trail ride website.

My understanding is that it was made by two German chaps riding on an "advanced hiking trail" (not meant for bikes!) in South Africa.

Amazing....and extremely stupid. One wrong move and it looks like "splat" for a good portion of that trail

 

[Rohnsman]

I'd have to call that the "No Brains Suicide Trail Ride." Beats me whay you'd even try it..!!

 

[lakesideboo]

That is insane I wouldn’t even hike it!!!!

That's a one way road and the guy who drives the U.P.S. truck down it say's He's tired of stupid doofs on bikes going the wrong way!!

I am amazed that they would play on that trail, much less at a decent speed in a few spots.



I have run my TW down a few cowtrails about that wide and it is tricky staying in the line. Only risk on the trails I was on was hanging up in sagebrush and falling over. The idea of doing the same where a serious bit of freefall would be involved is just crazy.

Stupid is as stupid does, I guess. At least there were two of them, in case the other needed to guide the rescue helicopter in.

I've heard the homeowner is real tired of those kids playing in his driveway!

I speak a little german and here is some of the translation. Hey Greggor, What? I think I'm coming down a little? What? I need some more acid, this looks scary. Just lick the inside of your helmet, I put some there. Ok, thanks. wow, look at the sky. Hey Greggor. What!!!?? Where is Ivan, I haven't seen him in a while? Then they talk some more about no african is going to tell a german where he can ride his motorcycle....





I think I'm going to have nightmares...
