doubt it; firstly it would be full suspension bike and proper technique would be to stand up out of the saddle - legs being the best shock abosrber
there are.
thing to notice is how steady the camera is compared to the front forks - shows suspension in action, both bike and human body.

I thought i was watching a half life re-enactment at first.
6 minutes of heavy breathing - not bad for free, you normally get charged £1.50 per minute for that sort of thing (Not that i'd know  )
That track looked in better shape than some of the pavements round my way
Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a
car that you are still paying for - in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes
and the car, and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it.

Cool! 
Thats a hell of a long course - rode at the BUSAs the other weekend, DH times there were around 1.40!
Was also stupidly muddy... Amazing fun though, anyone who doesn't play with bikes yet should give it a go!

I am Apalled!...
<Rant>
If I go for a gentle drive on a proper unsurfaced road (Green Lane), I get acused of carving up the countyside.
Here we have a complete off road track from the top to the bottom of a mountain.
In parts of that video you can see where the track has eroded the surface, and is damaging it.
Just cos the bloke in on a bicycle, its OK.
One law for them, and a different one for us.
I am not against cyclists enjoying the countryside, but that is irresponsible damage to the countryside.
</Rant>
Apart from the above... They must be absolute NUTTERS!
I hope they are required to have personal Medical and accident insurance, as the risk of injury must be quite high, and I dont see why I should pay
for them out of my taxes.
Danm... I am Ranting again...
