Yeah. Ouch. I posted the video a while back, but I didn’t know the story behind it, which I found on the link you posted:
On his ride across America in 1984 the legendary Jack Castor rode the 3,347 miles from SF to Boston in 44 days! Of which 12 of those days were centuries. He did not walk down any hills. Instead he threw his legs over the bars. It was until well over a decade later, in the late ’90’s in New Zealand, that he crashed while doing so. As he was being filmed by a TV crew.
