Thanks Torey. Chris, it was a long 5 in the sequence I landed. I cleared the 6 at one point, but the video was cut too short. Those stairs are long as hell too.

1: this is awesome you guys seem to get smoother every video
2:it seems entirely likely that you rode toms bike and have an opinion on the thing. so does it ride like a 71.5 HTA or not?

You know, I've always thought that style of fixed frame/fork setup looks goofy out of personal preference, but you guys sure do show how much they can handle. Fuckin 10 stair it's nutz. Good videos once again

OK. This is good. I can dig this style. It's smooth as fuck but still huge shit.
Great.

I ride by those steps everyday while working as I crank my way up towards the four deuce on 2nd.
As I pedal I think about how riding my bike is making me money so I could buy another bike so I could do that.
Well Done.
