Steel city dh track
This a joke?
eh?
Fairhurst = Troll
His problem is he's trying too hard.
At least he's wearing the correct head attire for the xc loop,just think he needs to lower his head and drop his shoulders abit and he'll be looking good ?
It's the 1st of May isn't it? Not the 1st of April! 😐
Nowt much wrong with that from what I can see.
Brilliant 😀
8/10. It made me lol.
the slide down the drop at the end made me lol as did teh apple eating bit
well i tell you what that is genius,best video ive seen in ages.makes a nice change..
had me laughing like hell.
quality.
Wonder which tyres he's using? .....
I would love to ride with this gentleman,he sure knows how to attack the course,the way he ate that apple made my little willy twitch.Better than sex !!!
Excellent - the bridge and the finish and the apple are top drawer comedy!
Love it how funny
😥
fantastic.............. 😆
Wish I could look that good on a bike!
I think he's doing a splendid job, rigid too, respect.
I think the issue is that the camera foreshortens the slopes, that's clearly much steeper than it looks. If he let his saddle down a bit he'd be fine.
What's the song?
cracking vid.
did he win?
did he win?
That video is nothing but win. Four wondrous minutes of thrills, spills, and hi-vis clothing. Loved it.
Haha! Is this for real!!!! Is this genuine?? Funny as **** anyhow! 😀
pretty genuine - fairhust is a real tryer but not overly good. His Ibis is in the shop have yumeya bits fitted so he was borrowing my old Marin, tyres may be a bit beyond it but hey ho.
I'm assuming the op was after some genuine advice and what I can add that IMHO there is one major issue that needs some attention. Ir is that the rider in question is riding without any gloves or similar hand protection. If the rider in question was to have a tumble or fall he could scratch his hands, and this along with the associated blood loss could lead to a significant injury. I think what this demonstrates is that there are some riders out there who don't take their health and well being seriously enough. In addition, un-gloved hands could cause injury to other riders in the event of the "friend" having any riding buddies of the same standard to ride with and if there was any kind of coming together or altercation. I hope this demonstrates the need to take health and safety seriously - remember it's tough out there
is that hora?
Are those 29" wheels?!
That is EXACTLY how I ride. Although without the high-visibility jacket.
Thumbs up from me 🙂
Shame the fanny-pack isn't hi-viz, a nice bit of niche riding there.
I like it. What's the song?
[i]fanny-pack[/i]
Is that like a minge bag?
This is how all you riders that post dreadfully boring and slow headcam footage look like when you're riding.
You might be wearing trendier gear but you are this crap.
Way overbiked IMO 😆
That made my morning...quality!
PSA -
People who find this 'genius' or 'top drawer comedy' DO NOT watch 'You've Been Framed' you might die laughing.
Seriously, it's not funny in the slightest.
tumbs up!

Now that's funny!

You strike me as the person in the video,offended per chance?
Ouch.
If the video had built up our preconceptions, in this case the rider is a 'noob' which were then destroyed, by say him ragging it past someone in full body armour with the latest DH bike and kit it [i]may[/i] have been funny.
lifer i bet you are not the "lifer" and soul of the party
i see mr lifer.
each to their own i suppose.
i found it funny but i have a low IQ
though it seems some others on here found it funny.
I don't get it 😕
Song is 'Myth' by Beach House, from their forthcoming album Bloom, out on May 14th, available on pre-order now.

dickyboy - with that username you make it too easy 🙂
The more I watch it the more I get it and the funnier it is.
You've literally covered all the singletrack world "pet hates" that supposedly none of us do cos we're riding gods.
parachute helmet - tick
riding around puddles - tick
sitting down - tick
attempting to brake in corners - tick
centre of feet on pedals - tick
supermarket rain coat - tick
cutting off the top of head when taking video/pictures - tick

The crossing the road bit at the start is probably the best as its just so random.
Should of had bar ends and Risers though !!!
This is how I imagine the big hitters of this forum riding.
this is probably going a bit far in the wind up though !

Cyclocross and a Met parachute inspired !

"This is how I imagine the big hitters of this forum riding. "
Yay - I'm now a big hitter!
Thanks for the thread and wasting 6 minutes of my life!!! very strange, I`m missing somet but not a clue what!!
nothing to miss - fairhurst tries dead hard but is shite, how can he improve?

must be being safe walking over the road 😀
Looks like your typical STW rider if you ask me.

Truth hurts. My mate took a video of me being Rad on a piece of singletrack near here. At the time we were both well chuffed with the video and thought it'd be cool on-line as a prime example of mountainbiking. Oh dear. Once posted it was worse than the OP video by a long, long way; the only difference being the clothing.... but even then my 1990's purple top gave the game away.
The video is too close to the bone for some I fear.
If that's genuine, you're a cruel cruel man 😀
Good technique crossing the road.
Someone has a very dry sense of humour, and is obviously a regular on STW.
Although I didn't find it LOLZ funny, I can appreciate the humour.

I don't get that your saying I don't get it! 🙄
Thoroughly enjoyed that! Thank you, it just goes to show that we're not all riding gods but your friend has made a marvelous effort nevertheless. I find these threads inspiring, keep up the good work. 🙂
😳
i thank you kindly lhabitantdepointe

i think he's actually faster than i am*, as roots and rain can testify...
(*actually, really)
He made the oldest mistake in the book, eating something totally healthy which wasn't cake.
Having had a few minutes to digest the video and read through the responses here I think most people are getting it wrong.
This guy is a comedy genius, should make more videos, and we should support him enmasse with followers and suggestions for future videos and turn him into an internet meme.
That is all.
You don't get legs like his eating cake !!!!
Sir Steve Peat has tweeted about this video...
