Unfortunately the video doesn't show the riders escape but the description did shed some light on how they managed it: "We were able to tie the bike off, then remove the handlebars, and somewhat gently lower it to the ground. Then we put the handlebars back on, and muscled it back up the embankment."

Our favourite moment of the clip has to be the rider's reaction: "I'm holding it all with my balls, get a picture."


I think my balls would be left behind if I was riding my TDM

Instead of left behind, try keeping them front and centre, for reasons of comfort  Smile
