I don't see anything wrong with that picture, it is just one of those urban trials riders doing a trick

poor b@stard. he didn't have a chance. best guess is his fork couldn't handle the compression while riding through the high tech white painted line garden

Forget the fork. Why's his drivetrain on the wrong side of the bike. That guys needs a new mechanic.

Been there, done that. Forget to tighten that front wheel and pull up on the bars while pedaling and WHACKO you're getting an asphault head message.

No worries. He is actually a member of the Polish Extreme Cycling Team. He's demonstrating the correct way to stop on a dime.....

All you guys need to get a job... you've got much too much time on your hands!

Have a great weekend riding somewhere.... me, I'll be experiencing cool ocean breezes down at El Moro on Sat.
