Athertons Vs. Farmer Jack

Mar 7, 2008
by Jordan Holmes  
Recently the Athertons were training, and ran into their land owner, farmer Jack. Here is what Jack had to say about the Atherton's trails on his land.

Check out the video!Animal pro snowboarder and filmmaker Johno Verity met up with the Atherton’s to produce a short story about the Animal Commençal team's winter training. Things get a little out of hand when they bump into land owner, farmer Jack.

 That was sooooo funny. Farmer Jacks got a new career for sure, he just needs to drill a hole in the front of his helmet to accomodate the pipe and he's good to go. Nice job for sure.

 Why are all the videos covered in the pinkbike logo lately? I can't be the only one seeing this.I've been viewing the site for around five years,and never a problem.I even created an account to see if there was a difference.This video looks great,though.Is that really the farmer riding? I can't see nothing.

 Farmer Jack could beat anyone, he is mental. I bet his Sheep, and Pigs, and cows are well proud of him. I wonder if they get put off when he rides in the jumps in his feilds. According to legend, Farmer Jack has a tractor with a Lamborghini Engine, turbo, NOS, and a huge sound system underneath his cab!

 It's good to see Benny Hill back on the mountain bike. If you don't know who BH is, ask your parents they'll know.

 (For the UK members: )I thought he looked more like Father Jackfrom the Father Ted show - "Bikes, feck, drink, women, too easy, drink, feck". In fact, he possibly did teach Steve Peat! lol

 for an old fat farmer holy shit that wasnt to damn bad HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA but i dont think it was actualy him riding cuas if you look at 'farmer jack" at the scene where he's doing the drop there is no belly and the rider is pretty slim compared to the fat old farmer but if it is him riding man does he got some balls

 Absolutely the funniest thing I've ever seen (biking related). Particularly well produced for a movie that is obviously a joke. Sure would be inspring though if it was actually Farmer Jack doing the riding.

 Farmer Jack seems to be able to mix up the worldcup quite a bit. Givin´ those lazy lads like CG and Peaty a well deserved lesson! Excellent video! Big Grin
