Jerry Seinfeld / AMEX Commercial

[KleinCrazy]

Intentionally destroying the landscape on a mountain Bike!!!! and BRAGGING about it!!!!

This is the LAST kind of commercial we need to exhibit mountain biking to the whole united states.

I am planning on writting IMBA to see if they have lodged a complaint with AMEX or FUJI, who happened to Donate a bike for fundraising for MORC at the 24 Hours of Afton Race this year!!!

Things like this only help us to loose our trails!!!!!

Some Advertising Exec out there deserves a little time alone on a trail with some Riders.

Anybody else see this ad and feel the same way?

Just had to Spout.

I too did not like the commercial when I first saw it. Yea, it was Jerry Seinfeld so people probably take that a little differently.. but still, the concept sure will hit home for those anti-bikers out there. As much as it was meant to be a joke, they sure did a nice job of portraying mountain bikers.

I wonder what the bike company thinks as well... I'm sure they don't promote that type of thing either.

I guess I didn't really give it that much thought but I get your point... I was too busy noticing how crappy his techinique was :D If you can call completely out of control technique.
