Danny MacAskill - "Way Back Home" This guy is getting unreal

I follow Danny MacAskill riding skill improvement throughout the years and the latest street trial video is simply putting the bar even higher, this guy is just an alien on a bike.
In this newest video (RedBull released it on youtube Nov.16th 2010 and already got 3,297,796 views!) Danny rides from Edinburgh (Scotland) back to his hometown Dunvegan, in the Isle of Skye.

Best 10 Countries for Cycling Tours

There are countries that are made for cycling.
Some countries have the perfect mix between great roads, great food, great history, great landscapes, great peoples, great weather.
Cycling every days on new roads is probably the greatest pleasure on a bicycle, discovering new cultures while cycling is the best way to travel.

I have cycled all over the world and here I can say that the best 10 are the following ones:

1- Ireland

2- Italy

3- Spain

4- Scotland

5- France

6- Canada

7- Germany

8- USA

9- Vietnam

10- Cambodia

But then, not including these following one would makes me a very bad man because I love those countries too:

11- Australia: Great Ocean Road.

12- New-Zealand

13- South-Africa

The cream of the cream is to have a tour operator that handle your luggages forwarding and rooms organization so you enjoy only to ride.

Read guide books to get ideas and go up there to enjoy the real cycling life.
