Spanish bike trial pair enjoy MotoGP
Friday, 09 May 2008
Two Spanish bike trial riders, Ot Pi and Dani Comas, were guests at the Pramac Grand Prix of China, enjoying the atmosphere in Shanghai.
Two men who made their names in Spain on two wheels, bike trial duo Ot Pi and Dani Comas, made the trip to the Far East for the fourth round of the MotoGP World Championship, enjoying the high-speed action in Shanghai.
Having won 12 World titles in his field, Pi is often referred to as the man responsible for the origin of the bike trial discipline, which involves riding over obstacles using a modified mountain bike and requires immense balance and skill. Comas, meanwhile, is a five-time World Champion of the sport.
Pi made headlines in China last weekend as he climbed the staircase at the Jing Mao Tower in Shanghai, one of the tallest buildings in the World, on his trial bike – a feat which is captured in the motogp.com video featuring the pair.
