Spinning around (Renaud Margry video still on Facebook)Video: Ever tried spinning round then riding a bike? Here's why you shouldn't ...
Here’s a video that brightened up our Monday morning – though it’s maybe not something we’d recommend you try at home or anywhere else for that matter.
If you’ve ever spun round and round on the spot, you’ll know how dizzy and disoriented it makes you feel, and how it makes your legs turn to jelly.
Now imagine doing that, then hopping on a bike. The consequences, as the saying goes, are predictable.
Best idea ever! hahaha
Posted by Renaud Margry on Saturday, 25 April 2015
The video was shared by French freestyle motocross rider, Renaud Margry.
Simon joined road.cc as news editor in 2009 and is now the site’s community editor, acting as a link between the team producing the content and our readers. A law and languages graduate, published translator and former retail analyst, he has reported on issues as diverse as cycling-related court cases, anti-doping investigations, the latest developments in the bike industry and the sport’s biggest races. Now back in London full-time after 15 years living in Oxford and Cambridge, he loves cycling along the Thames but misses having his former riding buddy, Elodie the miniature schnauzer, in the basket in front of him.

if it's not done on a cone, it's not proper
These goofs on bikes are amazing https://youtu.be/UlJgMHtgu1k
Sounds like Peter Sagan's latest trick in lieu of actually winning anything.
Why?
...because riding bikes is about having fun not just strava segments!
