Now Danny MacAskill does some truly astonishing riding but I’ve just come across this amazing little film starring Martyn Ashton. The thing about it is that he is not riding a bike designed to do stunts with he is riding a £10,000 uber light weight carbon fibre Tour de France beast the Pinarello Dogma as ridden by Bradley Wiggins. This is a bike designed for speed not bouncing over obstacles and Martyn’s ride over the bridge is simply unbelievable. Don’t try this at home !

Finally got round to watching this – wow – I’ve seen him as part of the Animal display team a few years ago at Fort William – that was amazing enough but to do it on a road bike is phenomenal. The bridge scene had me gasping too. Thanks for sharing. :^0
I cannot ride on anything raised off the ground – I keep trying to do these open side stone bridges in the dales on one of my rides. Only about a 3 foot drop but my head does not compute. How he does any of this stuff is incredible and on a road bike as well.
