With all respect, Tom, "embrace the power of 'and'". The Tour de France is impressive for the strength and endurance. This video is impressive for the balance and strength. One can appreciate both, with no contradiction.
I agree that no one has to like everything. I'm not interested in the Tour de France either, although I respect the athletes who compete in it. But my lack of interest doesn't mean that it's per se worthless.
And in rereading, maybe that's not what you meant, but it's what I inferred from the "my ass" comment. If I misread you, then I will retract and apologize.
This reminds me of some stupid stuff I did as a teenager on my 10 speed. Except this video is light years ahead, my hands usually never left the handlebars, and both tires were always on the ground.
