The first book i read was "The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian", and the second book was "The hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy".
Danny McCaskill in Inspired Bicycles has made me look twice at what you think you can't do, but you don't know that until you try and succeed or fail and those outcomes could make you better at what you do because you took the chance you had and did not let it slip past you.
This makes me really how you can do anything, but you have to practice and make mistakes. Also not everything will come to you right away and you won't be perfect at your favorite thing but you can become close to it. You need to take chances and do something that your uncomfortable wit to achieve greater things.
Danny McCaskill in Inspired Bicycles allowed me to realize that even though things that seem almost impossible can be done. He practiced a lot which shows that everything that he did took time to professionalize and do what he did on the subject. What he did on his his bike did not only display a crazy 5 minute video, but it also allowed me to realize that he is having fun doing something he loved which impacts me because I want to do something that is fun and suiting for me in the future.

This makes me feel inspired to do anything I want. H e could not ride a bike now he can ride a bike and not can only ride a bike but can do a ton of great tricks that would of took years to perfect. So if you need a little bit of inspiration just remember that you can do anything and all it takes is some practice and dedication to achieve what you want. Jaxton Knutsen
Inspired bicycles allowed me to realize that you should follow your passions even if they seem impossible. This can relate to me by the fact that I ride mountain bikes too and that I can always proceed.

Danny McCaskill Inspired Bicycles helped me realize that if you work really hard and don't give up and persevere you can do almost anything you want. In the video we saw him mess up a few times but he kept going and kept on trying until he got it right. I was shocked at how amazing some of the stuff he could do was which just even more shows how hard work can pay off and you can amaze your self and a bunch of others.
Danny McCaskill Inspired Bicycles presentation does relate to my world in a few ways, mainly because I have done things that most people have not, just like Danny McCaskill in his video. His video can also relate to writing because many times writing about something extraordinary, or using an innovative technique in order to grab and keep readers’ attention takes work just like Danny McCaskill performing his stunts. Additionally, his exploits connect to my academic endeavors in the way that academic endeavors must be planned, practiced, and polished as Danny McCaskill stunts must. My reaction to the video was one of shock, and then wonderment at what I was seeing, and how someone could be so passionate about something to reach such a high level of experience, and success.
This made me think that you can do anything you put your mind to. He took chances, made mistakes but practiced until he achieved his expectations. The video taught me that progression is made by determination and perseverance.

I do not think that I could do this on a bike. This looks like it took years of practice. But after watching this video is made me think that you can do almost anything if you put your mind to it. This video made me realize that you need to follow your passion because it is possible, you will fall down sometimes but if you really want it that bad you need to get back up and try again.

Danny McCaskill could do this on a bike because he probably has been doing BMX ever since he learned to ride a bike. It is something he is very passionate about. This video can teach people that they can achieve anything they put their mind to.
someone jumping off bike jumps to me does not relate to writing. I did not feel inspired. There was nothing inspiring to me, I didn't feel a connection. -Matt
Danny is probably extremely passionate about BMX bikes and these types of tricks. I don't think I could easily do this. I would need years and years of practice for it. Although this inspires me to work harder in what i am passionate about --Raney S
This video relates to my world because he is able to do so much, stuff that is obvious that he had to work on a lot,I used to be a gymnast and I would have to work 15 hours a week to do all my work and improve. It reminds me of all the hard work I had to do to get good. He definitely inspired me, and motivated me. I don't plan on getting that good at doing biking tricks, but I love to go on bike rides. During the summer I would go on two or three hour bike rides everyday, this video reminded me that I should do that more often. GPA reminds me of a gymnastics meet, or any competition. You may have a really bad meet, but that might not accurately show how hard you have tried, but you may do amazing and it does show how good you did.
I think this is inspiring because you can tell that he put a lot of hard work and time into this. The video also showed his mistakes and successes. This is an example that not everyone is perfect. This taught me that if you put your mind to something and practice it then you could go very far with it.

I don't see that this helps me with my writing or my school. I see that this is all about how you should never give up and you should follow your dreams but I don't see that this helps with writing. This doesn't inspire me all that much.
This presentation about Inspired Bicycles relate the the world because you have to adventure and take risks and you can relate this video to writing because when writing you have to do something different every time. He also made me look twice because not a lot of people can do this and it looks really hard to do and even though I would like to do this I feel like I wouldn't be brave enough to do it.
his passion for bikes has reminded me of my passion for art and makes me want to pursue my art even more, his constant practce is a fantastic way to look at other activities that you may do. -Kai

this relates my world by everything in this world is hard and before you do things you should always check what you are doing before you do it. this also relates to writing by if you make a paragraph you should always check your writing and make sure it flows and most importantly you can fail and if you do make sure you learn from it. this is also the same for academics if you fail the only reason it becomes a mistake is if you don't learn from so learn from your failures and become a better human. the way he made me look twice was by seeing him scan the terrain before doing a trick because even though he is monumentally good he can still fail. this motivated me by having a good person doing good things makes me want to get out in the world.
I can relate this video to our world because it shows that we all have talents. It will take time and failure to get good, but we all have something that we can do that other people cannot do. This video can be related to writing because practice and knowledge and skill can make it look easy to people on the outside, but really it is a challenge. He did motivate me to follow and chase my passion even after I fail and feel like giving up.

Danny McCaskill Inspired Bicycles allowed me to see that it did relate to my life because even though he is doing challenging tasks, he overcomes them no matter how hard it looks. to relate this to writing it is a good story that takes hold of the watcher and makes you not want to look away. This, like many writings, do the same thing, and grab your attention. I can relate this to my academics by realizing that everything we do no matter if it's in school or out of school, comes with a challenge of whether or not we can, and will do it.
