cai Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 I was flicking through the channels last night, and stumbled across this;No Way : The Hans Rey StoryThis documentary chronicels the life to date of Hans Rey,who is widely considered the pioneer of extreme mountain bikingIt's been shown on the 'Extreme Sports Channel' for the past couple of nights, at 8.00pm and 3.00am.It begins with him getting his first bike, then modifying it to replicate a Moto-trials bike. Then he starts comps in Germany, and eventually ends up overseas riding for 'Team GT'. It show wow GT decided there sales would go up more when Hans rode 26" over his mod. And then has footage of him in Jamaica attempting to ride/hop up a step river, in Japan going through a forest to try and find a 'lost tribe' that according to Hans fell to earth 12,000 years ago (he was then stopped from searching any further, when the Japanese government admitted the tribe does excist ), and in many other countries. He also shows him preforming Trials, Downhill, and Dual Slalom back in the day! And moments with his wife and family.It's a great watch, as its only on for an hour, and it covers every aspect of Hans' 36 year old life!Cai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
