This is a video of BMX rider Kieran Reilly successfully landing the world’s first triple flair, a triple backflip with a half twist at the end to land coming back down the custom-built ramp. Apparently the feat comes 16 years after the first double flair was landed. How much longer
This is a video of well-balanced (like a healthy breakfast) BMX rider Mike “Hucker” Clark (great nickname, mine’s Puker) riding around a skate park while standing balanced on his bike’s handlebars. That looks intense. For reference, if I’d tried this I would have had a lot less teeth (and blood
Because everybody measures personal success differently, this is a TikTok video of dreamer of things Kyle Scheele modifying a tandem bicycle so it looks like a centaur is riding it. Well how about that! Still, it’s a shame to see some people use all their hard work, time, and ingenuity

This is a video of Youtuber Scotty Cranmer and friends testing out the pogo bike (poke? bigo? pogke? bikgo?) they built. It works remarkably better than I expected, which, due to my innate pessimism, I expected to not work at all. I suppose some people’s homebrew projects turn out a
This is a clip from lots of free time haver and Twitter user commuteroo, who, using a basketball atop a stationary skateboard, manages to launch the ball with his bicycle, making a basket. In his own words while I don’t spend any time trying to replicate this shot: This one
