For walkers there is wire attached to the rock on the steep sided sections for them to hang onto, for bike riders I would have thought a parachute was essential :shock:

Wouldn't have been much of a challenge on a trials bike.
You probably want to go into town, and find a up to date Jap Bike store,
With a full spares department, a clean workshop, and kean young mechanics.
And ask them if theres a Grumpy Old Bloke out in the Hills, who knows how to fix Real Motorcycles.

I saw this on a local forum the other day.
Simply amazing footage.
I don't think I'd even want to WALK that trail...

I think the camera angle gives a distorted view of the trail making it look really steep. When he looks back, the trail looks a lot "flatter", still I don't think I would risk my life on such trails even if I am disqualified from the Darwin Awards :wink:
