Almost.  I competed against him at the '97 mid-Atlantic rodeo.  He was 1st
and I was either 6th or 8th out of about 120.  There are other top riders who
ride as well as he does up until they get to the slow ride.  He clobbers
everyone on the slow ride.  The NYPD guys say that he used to practice by
parking next to a pole.  He would hold the pole to get his balance, then
would let go to see how long he could balance the bike.  He would repeat this
for a half hour a day.  Apparently it worked.
