Don_Serl Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 marc-andre turned me on to this classic footage of john cunningham soloing ben nevis in 1976 (hadrian's wall, i reckon). as an enthusiast for combining motorcycles and hiking/climbing myself, i think i was even more impressed by his barehanded sortie across the highlands on his old british twin (BSA maybe?) - altho the bugger was amazingly fit and fast, eh, both on the approach and on the ice. and super-confident in his feet. so nice to watch a true master at work... cheers, p.s. no, i have NO plans for riding to marble canyon this winter!
