Japanese trials bike rider Tomomi Nishikubo figured he could probably match some of the best track & field athletes in the world, so he decided to complete the Pentathlon by bike. We all know what mega international sporting competition is going on in Tokyo right now, right? But no one wants to run afoul of the IOC…

But that doesn’t stop him from showing some crazy style in his own pentathlon – 110m hurdles…
