That's what I'm on about. I was cringing every time she said 'Yeah' as if she knew what the hell he was going on about.

To be honest, I don't think the jump was as impressive as his previous one. In fact, it wasn't impressive at all.

He's fucked now. There's a 20mph speed limit on Tower Bridge and the old bill will have posted the ticket out by now. Very Happy

I liked the wheelie at the end with the camera shot of the police who had closed off the road at the end watching on.

As to the jump, it was a load of poo. I saw better at the NEC in December.

It looked poo because he is so good at it, Knevil would have taken off wrong, had too much speed, not done the flip, landed on his front wheel, crashed out and spent three months in traction. Everyone would have said that was awesome.

Are me and Sickpup the only two who realise that if he had have jumped London Bridge it might have actually been impressive? Instead he jumped TOWER BRIDGE.

I've known that bridge was called Tower bridge since I was about five years old. What do they teach kids these days? Rolling Eyes

It would have been awesome, watching the arrogant twat land on his noggin would have made my day. Can't help thinking it would've made an interesting jump if he'd have tried it on one of evil's old harleys. Twisted Evil

Nope, if you look at my post I called it Tower Bridge. Mind you, There's a few septics in America who can't tell the difference between Tower Bridge and London Bridge cos they bought one of them thinking it was the other (they deny it now of course).

Would've been better if he did it on a bike not ment for it..

Like a baby push pram with a 900cc engine strapped to the back.. with one of the wheels broken.. using a broom pole for steering.. and everytime he wants to change gear he flicks his head to the right..

At least I'm not the only one that thought it really was a bit tame. It's cool they allowed it but it wasn't 'dangerous'. Maybe they'll be up for something more adventurous next time...
