Do you remember a time when there was no YouTube on t'internet? When you couldn’t log on and watch the weird and wonderful stuff that had been caught on camera?

Well, YouTube celebrates five years online this year and we’ve put together our favourite videos on offer from the mega-site where 20 hours of video are uploaded every minute of the day. We've also included links to top YouTube clips on our other sites, T3, GamesRadar, MusicRadar and Total Film.

Don’t worry, there’s no Su-Bo, sneezing pandas or Britney Spears videos in sight – all our choices are, of course, two-wheel related and in no particular order. Once you’ve had a look, let us know what your favourite YouTube clip is in the comments section below.

First up we have a short clip of a young girl parallel parking her bike. It's awesome.
