ben_travis Posted December 30, 2020 Report Share Posted December 30, 2020 This one has been a long time coming (full story below)...however I hope you enjoy my last video on the Inspired Bicycles Arcade before i move onto the Inspired Fourplay. A follow-up to my original 3 days in London edit, Mark and I started filming in September 2019, and things were looking good until the crash in the middle of the video. Unfortunately, I ruptured my spleen when i hit the floor, which meant 5 nights in hospital and nearly 12 weeks off the bike. We returned to London in December 2019 to try and finish the edit off, but poor weather / getting thrown off spots meant I left frustrated without an ender clip. Then....2020 happened. Due to COVID restrictions, the stars never aligned for Mark and I to get back to London and finish the video. I've now changed bike to the Inspired Fourplay, but I didn't want to waste the footage, so we've finally pulled it together to make a short video. Thanks to Inspired andTarty Bikes for their continued support and helping get me and my bike home after the crash. 22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Rainbird Posted December 30, 2020 Report Share Posted December 30, 2020 The fact that you continue to put out edits like this is a massive part of the reason I don't think I will ever not be a Ben Travis fanboy. Nice one gents. Crash at 2:12. No thanks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aener Posted December 30, 2020 Report Share Posted December 30, 2020 Three watches in and keeping that hop to manual at the weird sloped cross spot still makes no sense to me. (Plus, that spot looks ace.) Loved the tree-tap tyre-tap. Send those types of lines all day long! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
