Danny Macaskill scored the ultimate gig--2012
Olympics torchbearer

With just a few months until the 2012 London Olympics, our neighbors across the pond have already started the festivities--with the help of one of our favorite riders, Danny Macaskill!

Danny was granted a huge honor as the torchbearer in Glasgow, Scotland in front of a crowd of tens of thousands.

How many riders can say they've pulled a manual on a BMX bike with an Olympic torch?!

That is in Glasgow, Scotland, and not London, although it is still an honour!
