It is always so much fun to watch this guy ride. Yet again, Chris Akrigg proves that no bike can keep him from having a good time. The current cyclocross season convinced Chris to get back out on the skinny tires and produces a follow up to Chriscross. As always, Chris manages to make the incredibly difficult look easy, even on a cyclocross bike!

I do a lot of trail riding on my CX bike. You’d be amazed what a well maintained set of wheels can withstand.

at 2:15….love it!..I broke lots of aluminum road bike handlebars in the 90’s bunny hopping road bikes. Cleared a sofa behind a downhill curve once, it had just fallen off a refuse truck, was in the middle of the road. Still can’t believe I cleared it, must have been the adrenaline…

You really need disc brakes to do this! Always loved Chris, he’s a genious on two wheels, whatever wheels they are! 🙂

Great video. Chris certainly has some serious talent. Wet tree roots and moss covered logs really take some skill to master.
