I'm not the biggest fan of stunting, but this guy is pretty amazing (plus I'm a fan of trials bikes).

Fantastic. There is a big difference between wheelies through rush hour traffic and guys like this. I would love to have that kind of control over a bike.
There was a stunt rider at Laguna Seca that did one of the coolest tricks I've ever sene. He got up to a pretty good speed, then locked up the rear brake, sliding out and then getting thrown from the bike over the high side. He landed on his feet, and ran it out, as though it was an accident, and then looked over his shoulder with a confused posture, but his bike came to a stop on its side stand. He pulled it off so well, that for a second, I thought I actually thought it was an accident.

I wish I had that kind of control over a ball-point pen!

Just once in my life I'd like to do that cool turn around...not the one balancing on the front wheel - but that neat little flip out of the rear end.
Well...actually I'd like to do the front wheel one too. But good sense and old age preclude me from starting such ventures now.

Lean bike over, hit the gas and pop the clutch. I'd suggest trying it on a dirtbike, in the dirt, before trying it on a big streetbike. It's really pretty damn easy though. Back in high school (Only a few years ago.) i used to do donuts on my CR250 in the dirt with my feet on the pegs, then come out with a huge wheelie. Them's was good times, lol.

The little bike was a trials bike, judging by the color I'd say a GasGas maybe, its 2stroke, and geared way way down.
