Hopkins is so rad. Seems like a genuinely nice guy and his riding in Life Cycles is UNREAL.

That was awesome. Not sure what makes it "a day in the life" tho. Can't find it but there's another one that actually follow Hopkins around for a day. Nevertheless, great vid, probably tomorrow's VOD and deservedly so.

That was SofaKing good. BTW, my spirit guide foresees this getting VOD and Steve Smith on the podium at Windham.

sentinel13 (Aug 30, 2010 at 11:39)

Dude lays down some wicked fast flat (or nearly so) corners ~2:13! One of the rare few who look REALLY fast even in slow mo. Great edit. Inspiring no doubt. Screw work, I'm going to ride!
