What bike/tyre? Anyone think they could do better? Anyone want to have a go at the Burj Khalifa? In all seriousness I may be able to arrange it. I know the person who arranged for Alain Robert to climb it.

He didnt "ride" up them, he hopped up them, I feel let down now. Id like to see someone ride up them, that would be harder. Not that I could do either. I can just about hop off a curb.
This is how he hops
Nutter !
There must be a better way to do it!
Yes, backwards. Ride down proper like 🙂
Maybe I could try arrange a down the stairs time trial down the Burj Khalifa 🙂
out of context this statement just sounds stupid:
Herba started his stair-climbing career in 2009, and has climbed six towers. He trained for five months for yesterday's climb and had a couple of training sessions at the hotel before his record-breaking feat.
Well done to the chap and all, but repeatedly hoping up stairs just sounds like a Yawn fest...
Any old shite gets in the Guiness books now, I think it shold pass the [I]"does it impress an 8 year old"[/I] test, if it fails that then it shouldn't go in regardless of how hard it was to achieve...
dude needs a 36er
