You won't see awesome bike stunts like this in the Tour de France

Even if you'd handed Picasso and Rembrandt the same brush, they were never going to produce identical pictures. The same goes for bicycles and riders. Martyn Ashton has designed his own line of mountain bikes for trail riding, but he's an artist with any set of wheels. Here he takes a $16,000 Pinarello Dogma 2, the same model Bradley Wiggins rode to victory in this year's Tour de France, and puts it through a ridiculous ride in what he and filmmaker Robin Kitchin call their "Road Bike Party." It may be sacrilege to racing purists, but it's pure biking art nonetheless. And best of all, no doping scandals.
