…for science! Or… for the love of moto! Or simply because it’s fun to do things that aren’t maybe the best idea. Either way, Thor raised $50,000 to bring some amazing books to print… two years of the One Motorcycle Show. To entice investors, he said he’d jump over them for another 10k. He got it. Today, he jumped ‘em.
The ramp said it all.
After a few practice jumps and wheelies…
and burnouts…
It was time.
Thor is victorious.
And he should be. The wheels of that dirtbike are, how you say… not so good.
Also… kids are enthusiastic.
Also… here’s a gif! Thanks to Jud Muir for the video, I did a bunch of screencaps and came up with this.
For more photos from the jump, check out the facebook album.
