The tall bike rider committed big on that ride. Our local social cycling tall bike wheelman, Blake, should see this vid.
Thanks for posting.

That tall bike seemed incredibly dangerous.  Not only is it a long way to the ground if you fall, but there's no guarantee where you'd fall. The bike could fall into a car, you could fall into traffic, etc.

Yeah, the tall bike kind of hurt to watch. But the guy at 1:00 minute was taking safety pretty seriously. It's important to protect the head when you stoop down closer to the ground.  Also, wearing lycra on a trip that far saves on chafing! Very good stuff.
