at the end it is amusing how dramatic riding down that stairs is.

So you are 48 years of age, putting forward a Sisyphean argument on an internet message board…

Each to their own, I guess.

The initially time I rode the Kamikaze at Mammoth was in 1997 with a Specialized Stumpjumper hardtail, Judy XC fork with 80mm of travel.

That was one hairy-ass ride.

DAMN, look at that… what, 2 FULL INCHES of travel in the front!… respect to these guys.

Did we not retain the Falklands?! Unlike you unproductively trying to take backwater Iraq. At least we had a credible Empire.

Mastersd has got issues

dmrtrailstar2 September 8, 2010 at 9:48 am

Brilliant video. Thanks.

Not really sure why some feel the need to post such unenthusiastic comments.

djgravitate September 8, 2010 at 10:22 am

mastersduhgree – Surely your not that dumb???

The British Empire ring any bells? It was only the largest empire in world history.

Vietnamm War ring any more bells? I don’t reckon America won that one if I remember right, but maybe you’d like to jog my memory!!!!

You stupid prick! America have no history, no culture and no brains!

wa**er!!

mastersduhgree September 8, 2010 at 11:50 am

Inbreedings getting to be a serious come forth in england as youve demonstrated. Perhaps the brits should attempt to conquer another country and get some new blood circulating amongst you like say……oh the falklands ? Um no wait…theyre to tough for you pussies…best make it simpler. Try that pigmy infested country in africa….they might let you beat them.

DPTG23 September 8, 2010 at 12:36 pm
