- [Martyn] Corner (chicken cackles) cows ass.
- [Blake] Try to go straight, Mart.
- [Martyn] I am, that's me trying to correct!
- [Blake] Yeah, brake down here.
Brake, brake, brake, brake, brake, brake, brake.
Let go, let go, let go, let go.
- [Martyn] Oh no, oh.
Whoa!!
- [Blake] Holy (chicken cackles).
(dramatic music)
- Race day, yeah we're heading up the hill
to do the Fox Air DH on the Random Tandem, me and Blake,
I can't quite believe it, it's an insane idea,
'cause the A-Line, which is the track we're racing on,
for the tandem, is honestly terrifying, it's huge.
We practiced yesterday
and I've never been so scared on a bike in my life.
I'm actually shaking, I'm actually truly shaking.
But Blake, it's a Random Tandem race,
I thought we need to look the part,
okay. - Well, I'm all black.
- Yeah, but it's the Random Tandem, right?
- Right.
- You've got to look steezy, and nuts.
- I think black is nuts. - So I got a little surprise
for you under here.
Look.
- Oh, we're matching!
- We're matching, Pro Race top.
- Are we going to?
- Yes.
(Blake laughs)
Put it on, and then I've got another surprise for you.
- Can I put it on now?
- You can put it on now, yeah.
Dress him up, showing off his titties.
- Never been naked on a.
- He's a beautiful specimen, isn't he?
Yeah, so we're really nervous,
it's going to be really exciting.
Yesterday was a big day for me,
'cause I was practicing with my prototype fabric seat,
which could have gone wrong I guess, but it didn't,
it was incredible, it worked like a dream.
So we're going to head back home afterwards
and let them really dress that up
and make that look fantastic.
So I guess all that's left to do
is just add our matching freshy gloves.
(Blake laughs)
If you notice, I've swapped hands, so we're going a,
I particularly like wearing alternate color gloves,
so it's an orange and a blue, for me and Blake,
on the Random Tandem, we look too pro.
- We do (laughs).
- We look too pro. - We'd better win.
- Let's do it!
- We'd better win.
(Blake and Martyn laughing)
- Well, that actually matched, look.
- Well it will, won't it, 'cause we've,
'cause we've.
- Oh, yeah.
(upbeat music)
(wind blowing)
- [Leo] Whoa!
You guys, that is so cool, oh my God.
- All right, we're heading up to the race run.
- Yeah.
- I'm proper nervous now.
- You got cotton mouth.
- I'm proper scared, yeah, I need some water.
- Leo is going to be following us.
- It's going to be sick.
(laughing)
- Oh my God. - And then we.
- We're going to go for it.
And I've got a plan,
I'm going to get down and free them first two corners,
then I'm just going to listen to Blake's instructions.
I'm going to brake when you say brake,
and I'm not going to brake when you say don't brake.
- Don't brake, 'cause we want to clear some of them step ups.
- Well, that's what you say.
- Yeah.
- And you say it's better to clear them then not.
- It's better to clear
than case the hell out of it. - There's definitely
some times when I feel like I like to brake
when you say don't brake. - Then you should do
what you think is right for you, Mart.
- No, I'm only doing what you say once we free
them first two corners. - Right,
and I'm going to be saying brake
before we go to fast
and go to the moon. - Well, there's definitely one
we have to brake for.
- Yeah.
- There's a massive one, where you say
definitely braking. - That massive bastard one.
Yeah.
- But the other ones, where you're like,
"I think we need to clear it."
I'm just going to leave them brakes
and go as straight as an arrow.
I just want to go straight
off of the loop. - That is key,
we want to go straight off that loop,
'cause if we go skew with,
oh, that's when it goes terribly wrong.
- I'm getting into it now, I'm getting into it now.
- I'm feeling good on the back, Mart.
- We've got this, dude, we've got this.
- We've got this.
- Dropping in.
- [Martyn] Right, Bingers.
- [Blake] Right, Dingers.
- [Martyn] Let's have it.
(gravel crunching)
- [Blake] Let's be careful though, ey?
- [Martyn] Oh yeah, man.
- [Blake] Don't get too carried away.
- [Martyn] Right, we're going right to the start line.
(engine roaring)
- [Martyn] Go Blake.
- [Blake] Ready?
- [Martyn] Go.
(crowd cheering)
- [Martyn] Oh, that was on the point then, dude.
(tandem rustling)
- [Blake] Remember this corner.
- [Martyn] Yeah.
- [Blake] Go quite high.
(spectators cheering)
- Quite high, Mart,
you're low. - I couldn't
because of the Fusion.
- Whoa.
We got away with it, Bingers, - Yeah.
- [Martyn] we got away with it.
Right, now, - Careful, Mart.
- [Martyn] I am now on your instruction.
- [Blake] Yeah, right.
Remember, here's our brake for this chap.
- [Martyn] Yeah.
We're (chicken cackles) racing A-Line, dude.
- [Blake] No brakes.
- Oh, yes. - Mart.
Ha-ha.
- [Martyn] Oh, that was harsh.
- [Blake] A bit of brakes for these, all right?
'Kay, no brakes, no brakes.
Yes.
No brakes.
- [Martyn] Oh no, (chicken cackles) that was harsh.
- [Blake] Try to go straight, Mart.
- [Martyn] I am, that's me trying to correct.
- [Blake] Don't try to correct,
you're going to go off straight.
No brakes.
- [Martyn] Yeah, yeah, that was well nice.
We popped into that one well good.
- [Blake] Yeah.
All right, stay left.
Stay left no brakes, straight, straight.
- [Martyn] We're losing the Fusion.
- [Blake] Bit of brake, bit of brakes, no brake.
- [Martyn] Whow.
- [Blake] Martyn Ashton.
Just take it easy.
- [Martyn] I'm going easy.
- [Blake] Brake, little bit, little bit.
There goes the Fusion.

Oh my God, we lost the Fusion. - Careful.
All right, brake a little bit for these,

- [Blake] So slow down.
Yeah.
- Yes, that was the best. - And then stay right.

That's it.
Right, brake here.
A little bit.

Little bit, stay right, this is the rock drop.

I got left and right right then.

Let 'em go, let go, let go.

That was the best one we've done.

[Announcer] All right, coming in to the coral here,
is the British bike legend Martyn Ashton.
- Oh my God. - Oh my, got to stop, yeah.
- [Man] How was that?
- It was (laughs) it was good.
- There's the Fusion.
- We lost the GoPro Fusion halfway down.
Yeah, it was amazing,
we definitely went too big on a few things,
and we only just, we only just did it.
- We only just did that bit.
- I'm officially retiring my A-Line career, right there.
- No.
- Until next year.
- Until next year (laughs).
- It was unbelievable, Bingers.
- Yeah, we just.
- Oh man, it was so good one. - That was scary.
- It was such good fun, but I'm glad we got to the bottom,
everything worked, except for the.
Except for the Fusion disaster, I hope it still works,
but it was pretty crazy.
