"bike parkour" 2

one thing lead to another, and i ended up checking out other fresh blooded people from the "Adventurers of the Year 2012 - previous years" on National Geographic Adventure.
the kind of things that makes you think ''wtf have i been doing all these years?" and, depending on your current mood, makes you feel either crappy and useless or makes you want to get up and do something. good thing my reaction was the latter, else it'd be shitty.hahaha

anyways, here are some of my favorite picks, with links on their journey & interview:
