  • I started out as a pretty hardcore trials rider back in the day. Recently i've been riding pretty much anything with two wheels so i thought is was time to go back to my roots and put a chilled little trials edit together. Everything was going well until.......

    Sorry this happened, and happy you weren't killed. But the way you casually call up "Ambulance" cracked me up. Yorkshire men are made of strong stuff.

    Chris, Watched this three times and cannot get over your style and toughness. I could use some friends like you. Looking forward to more of your inspiring work. Very best to you. John

    Seriously, did you just say that? THIS IS THE LEGEND. Chris is older than danny and a many times trials world champion, I'd tell you that he inspired danny but someone luckily has already told you that.

    I think you are right when you say that you could have come off alot worse and with the hair raising things I have witnessed you do first hand back when I was still a school kid you done well too only have had one really bad accident just shows how good you are as I used to be hurting myself day in day out when I used to try live upto some of the crazy shit you do I think I'd have prob killed myself if I'd have carried on and can't wait to see what you get upto for GT cycles as I'm sure alot of people will be.

    It's sucks when you break your femur. I broke mine in 5 places and had the same rod installed and my left foot broke it in over 50 places all at the same time. Get well soon.

    hi! sir chris, i just got into mountain biking,... and i just got my Mongoose Khyber Elite 2010... last of its kind in singapore. got it at a good good price,, because of clearance sale. i really admire your videos, watching it makes me brave to attempt downhills and hit the ramps. i grew up with a bmx, due to some reasons... i stopped. i know this is too much to ask from you... or its kinda outdated, because of the model that i was talking about.

    (2)maybe you can make a video... using Mongoose khyber elite. i saw one already.. with the blue coloured one.. maybe you can ride on some of the models... or boot'r if you may.. i was also checking mongoose website... and i noticed that khyber elite is not available. the one i have is a black colored frame.. with gold decals. with a mixture of some white. then when i check others... it comes in black and white.
