SERGIO DAVIDS: “My favourite clip for  2013 was Red Bull's Excitebike duel. Red Bull's supercross clip is great video if you're feeling nostalgic.

“Another video highlight in 2013 was the ram-cam battle. A biker straps a camera to an angry ram and ends up being attacked by the bike-hating animal. It always puts a smile on my face.”
