Sure, you can do the DMD. But can you do this?

I was assuming that maillotpois and PZip were planning a training ride simply to work out their choreography. No? :confused:

Wonder if they'll sport matching tiaras.
I never watch videos usually, but this is NUTS!
I was impressed by myself for being able to do figure-8s in a single parking lot space (and spots are much tighter in BC than I've seen them anywhere else in the world except perhaps Paris). But these guys do figure-8s backwards on one wheel, synchroneously!!!!!!!

If choreographed swimming can make it to the Olympics, this should too!

That is the most amazing thing I have seen in a long time. And no, SK, the Princess and I are NOT doing that at DMD or any other double. Unless I start hallucinating... Which is always a distinct possibility. :D

I'm just not sure there are enough people in the world who can do this!!!!!!!

OK... I sent the link to a friend who knows I got to meet and get pics with George Hincapie on Saturday... she saw this and said, "OH! You and George can do this for your first dance at the wedding..." :eek: :D :D :D
ah... a girl can dream!:p

I can't see it! Restricted acess at work. :( Think synchronized bicycling a la the Cirque du Soleil in a high school gym. They do the whole thing on diamond frame bikes while riding wheelies. Truly amazing balance. The length of the performance without touching down the front wheel left me awestruck.

Wow whenever I see amazing stuff like that I think how many horrible crashes etc must they have when training to get this good.
It cant be pretty.

Wow!!! It looks like their front forks must be locked in place, but at the end when they ride off, the front forks seem to be moving freely. That's amazing!!

I think that at the beginning of the video I saw one of the guys reach down and do something with his fork. Maybe there is a flipper-type thing (technical term, see also: jargon :) ) that locks the front fork?
I'm not going to look again, it makes me feel too inadequate.
