I must admit that's pretty cool. But of course it's not like Top
Gear, it's automatically completely safe because it's cycling. Doing
that is safer than driving even at 1mph in the middle of an otherwise
empty car park. And if you need a helmet for the former then you need
one for the latter as well. Here endeth the lesson.

I'm pretty sure that as well as helmets the participants will have been
wearing full body armour for that one, and justifiably so.

It looks like the rider is wearing a pinstripe suit.

It looked absolutely fantastic - I would early love to get kitted-up in body
armour & helmet, and do that run. I wouldn't make it, at least not at the
speeds he was doing, but what a fantastic buzz! It's like running with the
bulls, or the cresta run.

Not big & not clever. Clearly demonstrates the fact that cyclists are
overgrown schoolboys who lack the maturity to realise that push bikes
are for ****s.

Each to their own, Dave. I've always enjoyed speed & adrenalin.
