Up On The Pegs

I was riding up Lookout Mountain this afternoon and the Monsoon clouds were building. I turned around about half way up and a young man on a 650 V-Strom pulled up next to me. He was from Alberta, Canada. I noticed his tires were like knobbies. He said they were 50/50 street and trail. I told him I have my video camera on if he wants to ride in front of me.

So he takes off down the mountain, and stands up on the pegs all the way down. I busted a gut trying to keep up with him. I still don't see how he could countersteer standing on the pegs.
