  • Never mind Toni and Doug. The big question is how much longer my OCD is going to allow the topic title to stand as it is before I correct it ?

  • I gave in and fixed it.

  • Is it absolutely necessary for them to be more popular? I like the idea of being in a sport that's a bit "special" or not so well known. That said, I always welcome a bit promotion and try to

Valentino Rossi is on top level and always found a way to promote the sport.
It's a responsibility of the big names on sport but depends on their personality.

How do we explain this then...........

3,146,400 views. Professionally filmed, excellent content, exciting stuff even to non bike riders.

Making the sport more spectacular just to make it more popular might have the opposite effect. You might loose (a lot) contenders.

That ship sailed some time ago

Perhaps trials is like a fine wine, only of interest to those who can really appreciate it, whereas DM is supermarket plonk for the masses.

I think he just released another one ..... AKA sponsors ....Seem to remember something about riding a bobsled run and getting 300+ feet of air ...! (not for the faint of heart !)

To those who think being popular is important or cool: Hitler was also very popular at one time in Germany.

Think for yourself and don't follow the masses blindly.

This new video I predict will exceed everything that has gone before in maximum views - The combination of scenery, music and stunning cinematography have got the balance just right - Produced by the same team that did 'The Ridge' they are just the best in the business right now ... This sets a new benchmark in sports videos when we have man vs nature. :thumbup:

I told my 9 year old son that the tundra igloo is where father Christmas lives and he had invited dougie to visit with his bike!

He thought the staircase with the slope would be where they load the presents on to the sleigh :xmas:

The ridge has over 25 million views in 2 months. Igloo is at 180 thousand and at least 20 of those are mine :). I really don't think it will be as popular as the ridge but it may be as popular as Danny's tour of the playboy mansion

Julian DuPont's latest on a rollercoaster was released about the same time and is over 2 Million views

No telling what some people find interesting.
