Matt Gilman wrote us recently let us know about his latest video, featuring plenty of riding footage and lending a new perspective to it all by documenting Matt walking out the sections beforehand with his white cane. Matt is blind, yet with careful planning and some friends giving a prompt here and there is able to ride bike trials lines well beyond the ability of many able bodied trials riders.
CHALLENGE: Try to trackstand while wearing a blindfold.
The end of the video issues the challenge, and I’ll report that after a few tries in the living room I can trackstand an entire 6 seconds with a blindfold on.
18 seconds on my first attempt. Felt like i could go longer if I had not rotated a bit and hit my garage wall.
Awesome.
