"Martyn Ashton takes the £10k carbon road bike used by Team Sky's Bradley Wiggins & Mark Cavendish for a ride - probably not what the manufacturer intended."

For my readers who don't watch the Tour de France (which is almost everybody!), this is a road bike, made to be ridden on roads, very fast, for long distances.

This is 5 minutes of awesome.

See that? Push the limits. Challenge yourself. Challenge the status quo. Do what makes you happy. Do what others say can't be done. Do what others can't. Do something remarkable. Have fun.

All good lessons. (and I bet he didn't learn how to do all that overnight...)
