Video: some incredible extreme biking on the Isle of Skye, Scotland

[Terry]

This biker, Danny Macaskill, does some pretty amazing (and suicidal) biking in the Cuillin Mountains on the Isle of Skye. I'm sharing it because I just love the scenery here, and I think near the beginning of his trek up he goes by the Fairy Pools, which we recently visited on our visit to Skye. It's a fun watch.

That was terrifying to watch!! But the scenery is magnificent.

When we were in Lenk, the day we hiked up to the alpine lake, it was a very steep and rocky climb and a group of 3 bikers (2 men, 1 woman) passed us carrying their bikes. They got to the top and rode down - we watched them. I was nervous walking down, I can't imagine riding.

The guy in the video almost "walked" his bike at times, without getting off. I have never seen that before.

Spectacular! And absolutely gorgeous scenery.
