I'd definitely do it, although I would more likely look like an articulated truck trundling down the road. I'd love to see the drivers' face as they were overtaken

Wow, I am not sure if that is amazing and cool or stupid. It is one of those things that is great as long as everything goes OK. He could just as easily end up as road kill as well though.

Yeah I tend to agree, though the fact that it's mightily stupid adds to the excitement somewhat. A bit like bunjy jumping. It's exciting cos there's an element of stupidity about jumping from a great height with a rope around your ankles. I recommend it. However, I think I'd like to stop the traffic coming the other way first

I have to confess that riding a horse holds many more terrors for me than any parachuting or bunjy jumping I have done. I WILL do it one day. When I can find a large Shire horse to take the strain:D

How hot do the rollers get as he is speeding down the mountain? To many way to die an ugly death with this. Might try it in a short controlled area. :wah:

Wow. He's a beauty. Looks like he's full of the strength and stamina needed to haul this big galoot

Thank you very much and he is very strong but very sweet and gentle. When ever you're ready to visit, I'll saddle him up for you :wah:

Wow, Snowfire, that guy knew what he was doing ! What a long downhill road ! I wonder what speeds he got up to ! I don't think I would do that, well not without some brakes anyway :yh_rotfl

What a gorgeous horse, Jazzy ! I love horses, and I used to ride a lot, years ago, but then I discovered I couldn't sit astride them any more.

But I can still talk to them and pat them. I love em nearly as much as I love dogs ! :-6

I'd want to practice first - that's an awful long hill.

You really don't appreciate the speed he's doing until he has to slow down behind the motorbike - and then again when he flies past it.
