Thanks to Hooligan for posting a link to this video in the comment section. This is the supposed HD version of the video. But, to be honest, I can’t tell the difference between them on this machine (yes, I watched both).
The man, the legend. The guy who started it all back in the Year of Our Lord Beer, 2000, with a couple of pages worth of idiotic ranting hardcoded on some random porn site that would host anything you uploaded, a book called HTML for Dummies (which was completely appropriate), a bad attitude (which hasn’t much changed), and a Dell desktop running Win95 with 64 mgs of ram and a six gig hard drive. Those were the days. Then he went to law school. Go figure.

I love that they included the guy who rode 20km without a seat.
Beautiful video!
…like something out a’ sergei eisenstein’s ‘alexander nevsky’…
You’ve gotta click the 720p setting to get the “HD” version. You can see a difference if you do that.
You can see a spoke lose tension for an instant in the last close up of a front wheel. 2:05ish. Cool.
I must get over there just to ride those roads one day.
I broke one of Mr. Gordon’s frames killing it over any brick/ballast road section I came across dreaming of the day it was my turn make everyone cry.
J – Thanks for the heads up. I generally have no idea how to work most things.
Gnome – You had better believe it buddy. We’re going.
