Ryan Leech, is a cool guy. Methinks Dan is imitating Ryan. Leech is a professional trials mountainbiker who gets paid for his tricks now on the international circuit. He lives in a suburb outside of Vancouver, but is revered by internationally by the Mtb & trials community.
He also did a cross-Canada roadshow for schoolchildren with his tricks, but gives a friendly message to kids about perseverance and trying hard at something that one loves to do.

I saw this guy perform last week in a meeting rm. where he jumped his bike over 2 people lying down on the carpet.
He's pretty cool since he practices yoga..to save his back and has no problems telling the whole world about it. He wants to hold yoga sessions at the next Interbike.He is also working towards teaching yoga.
Since we're not part of the mountainbiking community here, I had no idea of this local, famed talent.
