Kris Miller, Courier, 28/02/12. Picture today at Highland Fling Bungee, Killiecrankie where cyclist Adam Flint was taking part in the first 'bike bungee'. Pic shows Adam (doing a front flip) during one of his jumps.
The organisers of a Perthshire daredevil’s ”bungee on a bike” are hoping footage of the stunt will prove to be an internet hit.
Adam Flint, from Dunkeld-based Progression Bikes, celebrated the leap year in spectacular fashion by becoming the first person to launch himself from the UK’s only permanent bungee site at Killiecrankie while in the saddle.
His daring jump was also designed to help promote cycling in Highland Perthshire ahead of a busy summer of biking events.
Adam said: ”Hopefully more and more people will see this and get enthused and excited about coming up here and spending the day or week doing as many activities as possible.”
