James May is a good driver, if you look on some of the episodes where they are on beaches, he powerslides the cars with ease, they just dont show him driving well because its part of his "character"
Cool video, seen it on tv already tho

well just think about 2 things
#1 . where did you put your brain
#2 . if you start in edinburgh and finish in london, one could go straight there and the other could go to new york then london, they both started and finished in the same place but went different ways. you dumb f*ck.

i think it may have been slightly choreographed like the jump over the car and stuff but def not as much as the bmx
wasnt it filmed like a few days before lisbon downtown in '07?
He takes the same route as the downtown too

I remember seeing this on Top gear, and i was like. He's never gonna do it.
Is the BMx one on here, from a couple of weeks ago?

actually we like cars, we like jeremy clarkson and bearing in mind he's about 60 and his mum must be going on 90, the majority of us would not f*ck her
but bikes do rule
but bikes do rule
Most people dont know who Clarkson is ... he hosts Top Gear and has publicly stated he HATES bikes and he HATES bikers , hes gone so far as to say they should be killed , so watoosh, clearly you are backing this mentality and attitude. Clarkson is the scum of the earth and his rantings is why so many bikers in UK are killed and injured on our roads cos car drivers are following his mantra.
Andy, sorry but you are wrong with absolutely everything you just said, ranging from the small fact that jeremy clarkson "co-hosts" top gear to the relatively large one that he does not hate bikers, and to be honest any views he does express are towards bikes with engines... he has stated in an interview with a motorcycle magazine that he has nothing against bikes or bikers nd the reason he does not ride one is due to a bad experience when he was younger involving a motorcycle. Any detrimental comments towards bikes are just said to wind up his co-hosts james may and the other one. Anyway, listen to yourself, youre saying that car drivers hear clarkson going on about bikes and they all decide to go out and hunt down bikers, come on, thats clearly not right. Obviously youre one of the "most people (who) dont know who Clarkson is"...

Genex did something like this but it was Sam Hill racing a Subaru rally car down a mountain and the bike won again. Did anyone else see it??
here's the link: http://www.pinkbike.com/video/7209/ it's a very staged video and (to be honest) complete nonsense, but it's always good to see Sam Hill killing it on a bike!
top gear did another one like this but with two bmx's! did like 360's over skips etc. and they won aswell!
JamesOliver, have you got a link? Sounds worth a watch. Topgear is quality tho, James May is great, I just hope the world doesn't watch and assume all British people are that way.

Yay, I got a VOD

And it´s even the first VOD of 2008, that´s kinda cool.
I also have that BMX-episode mentioned by Dits, anyone interested?

that looks really fun!!!You were flying through those streets.Ilove it when he jumps over the car.Nice vod
this seems very staged but it looks legit it was cool to watch to and I know down hilling brings lots of speed especially in that kinda of are for the race.

Cool vid but what is the point? okay now race on a F1 race car track and see who will win. Next race on a WC downhill track. Makes no sense to me.
Obviously, rotato, you missed the point. They were showcasing Gee's skill on a bike more so than they were showing off a car. Watch Top Gear more and you might of caught on quicker. The show actually has a personality of its own. That said, a worthy VOD.
That was fantastic! "The boy on the bicycle" lol. Loved the timing when he jumped the car. Looks like an awesome city to ride in.

oh what cus theyv actually got some culture? cus theyr countries been colonized for more than 500 years? dick.
this is the first video i saw that got me into biking i remember it well it was on TV and i was watching it with my parents and they were like "gee is mad, dont you ever do anything like that!" and i thought about for 2 seconds then said this is what i want to do. i went out and did a 60 stair then i did a 150 stair now ive done a 196 stair, i cant find any bigger than that (sucks). im one of the most highly regarded members of my team now. Thanks Top Gear, but moreover Thanks Gee Atherton!
Cant wait till spring so i can ride again. Im going to ahve to try that next season. Get a couple friends together and race bikes through the city.
james may and richard hammond aren't very good drivers lol. they got a rating of three out of ten on radio one.
saying this because some person wrote that james may is a good driver.
immense video

"how can gee's route be a km longer if they started and finished in the same place???????" u r an idiot LOL
Ok, one understandable example for the obvious dork above me: If you start in London and want to go to Glasgow, taking the ferry to Ireland and then over to Scotland would make your way much longer than if you would´ve gone straight north.
