Hydroplaning Bike

Well, loads of people have done it. I think you get loads of, oh, like, they’ve got, like, ‘rad’ Americans, you know, the far-out dudes. They all they all have a go.

Yes!

They’re trying to ride their motorbikes across water. But when you look at it really, all right they are riding their motorbikes across water but it’s only, like, shallow puddles. And they’re all, like, high-fiving each other and it’s all ‘rad’ and ‘gnarly’ and what have you. But it’s no one’s actually gone for a record, just for distance. So we thought, ‘That’s what we’re going to do.’

But at that time, I couldn’t hear anything. I couldn’t hear anything. Just that deathly silence and I was just waiting for the impact of the water. For me, that was yeah. You’d think, ‘Oh, he’s only landing in water.’ But I’ll tell you, you try landing in water at fifty mile[s] an hour. You know about it, I’ll tell you!

But still, we had a right good craic doing it. We had a good we had a good craic.
