You can't actually see the bike so for all you know I could be stood up here, or at least walking along. Ho hum.

Thanks for the beard endorsements.

๐Ÿ™‚

+1 Tinystreaker - That was pretty impressively seamless video work.

I lost about 5 inches (~9-10 months growth) to a bonfire back along, so I'm trying to recover that now. I have taken to trimming my 'stache back a bit tho', which I don't really like doing, but in the end it just goes everywhere, and makes it too difficult for some people to lip-read when I speak - and as I work quite a lot with elderly / disabled people, that was becoming quite a problem.

This danger panda thing is surprisingly difficult, given how easy it sounds.
I didn't realise how poor my (and your!) balance on a bike is. No wonder I stopped riding trials !

Yup, it's a challenge, one not many can do given the lack of replies, we can give ourselves a (no handed) pat on the back:)

On-road it was easy, this was my best effort:

But off-road my camera-hand kept getting caught in the trees... and I don't look quite so comfortable:

Anyhow, this brightened up the dull bit in the middle of my commute home from Matlock to Nottingham yesterday!

did I miss something? Why is it called a panda? - no hander?

It's something to do with a lady calling herself "Faster panda, kill, kill" apparently.

Bonus point for doing it in flip flops, thereby increasing the danger quotient by at least 50%.

This looks like fun - I'll have a go at the weekend. Can I just clarify the rules:

1. Is a beard compulsory? If so, it won't be THIS weekend...
2. Do I have to ride something niche and/or steel framed? If so, it won't be this year...

Thanks rOckeTdOg. In view of response to Q1, I shall try and do something creative with cotton wool in a Santa stylee. That should do the trick.
