Bottle smashing hooligan! 😀

Brilliant! For a few minutes at the start, thought it was going to be a revenge story, perpetrated against the white van man...

3.5 year old yunki jr OD'd on bike vids when he was smaller and hasn't taken an interest in over a year..
he just sat through that transfixed, with little involuntary wooops! and giggles..

thought it was going to be a revenge story, perpetrated against the white van man...

I hit a bunch of gap jumps the other night, was dead pleased with myself.

Nothing like an Akrigg video to remind you just how small those jumps were. The bit with the concrete pipe is brilliant.

That's gotta be up there with his best videos, although saying that I can remember at least 3 that were all brilliant (hill in spain, industrial one and the most recent with old school trials in).

The gap between the buildings onto the lower level was the highlight for me.

Absolutely brilliant, could sit and watch Akrigg stuff all day 😀

Love the hop over the switchback on the DH run aswell, makes you wonder whether DH racers could look at tracks like that.

His best yet - probably one of the most talent riders ever, capable of riding anything. Genius

I think it is hard not to love Mr Akrigg's riding... unless you are his wheels maybe 😀

Not really much he can't do is there...

Cracking vid with a cheeky fun attitude rather than trying to show off!

Love the bit on the concrete pipe for skills, but also the clean clear of the rocky uphill using hops and jump turns etc. Makes all those DH vids where the riders spend 10mins pushing up look silly 😉

Awesome. The bit on the switchback climb around 2:20 when he hops onto the rock around the corner is brilliant. Also, and I'm not sure if it's intentional, but the bit where he's hopping in time with the beat of the song and he passes by the doorway is superb

One of Yorkshire's finest, the lads a riding beast.

The climbing section on the 29er was sheer class.

Proper amazed at that. Danny Mac seems very polished these days with high production values..
That was better though bit more down to earth, lots of high risk stuff-the concrete pipe was impressive as was the wee bike.
Nice to see someone ride so many different styles!

That was one of the best bike videos I've seen. The guy is inhuman.

As much as I like Danny Mac, he's seriously got to up his game to get close to that.

Great riding. Still got to be the best (high profile) all-round bike rider on the planet?

Really enjoyed the edit, but still think A Hill In Spain is a slightly better film.

I just wish I'd took more notice of how to ride stuff when he was Skipton based, and he use to ride up stuff I was walking up.
