    SBR (Sorta Bike Related): Have any of you watched Nitro Circus yet? That show is the the best!

    Produced by Johnny Knoxville staring Travis Prastrana, it's got a bunch of skate boarders, bmx'rs, and motocrossers doing crazzy a$$ shait - jumping from an airplane with no chute, doing back flips with big wheels it has cool stunts and some carnage and it's funny as heck.

    Sunday nights on mtv, check it out.

    I watch it occasionally, and its great. Who else besides Knoxville and Pastrana would backflip a big-wheel off a mega ramp?

    Yeah that show is great. It kinda like Jackass but doing stupid more sports related stunts and not any real gross stuff. They also failed to mention that Jolene Van Vugt is quite easy on the eyes and is not only there because of her looks.

    The last episode with all the world records on a mountain bike done by Jim Dechamp was ridiculous. There are so many good riders on this forum that could break those records in a heartbeat.

    Yeah he is unathletic but I got to give it to him to try anything. The best was the one where they are shotting him with paintballs and he is running saying better then drywall better then drywall.

    I would bet he could have done much better but it was more about just break/set a record and move on.

    I know the show was about how many records they could set in a small time period. Just seems like a waste to even except those as records:?:.
