I lost count at 34 places on this route that I would have died. Be sure to check this video out, “Dan Atherton Sends It Down the Hardline MTB Track”
This is absolutely awesome (fair warning, I’d make sure you pee before you watch this – so it doesn’t happen whilst you’re watching this):
At least he has the decency to be breathing hard (and the merest hint of a grunt at one point)? The wheelie over the finishing line is just showing off!
I thought the same thing – except the manual (wheelie). I thought that was quite fitting after that performance!
Holy frickin guacamole Batman…I went between nearly vomiting and roaring my head off laughing, terrifying but truly amazing.
Me too!
Dude that is some insanity! Can’t even imagine the rush of it.
This offers an entirely new perspective of courage
You know what that is? It’s a group of people who hate mountain bikers and so they come up with a course designed to kill them. That’s cra cra as the kids say today. I love that he had the energy for some tail whips along the way. It reminds me of this sort of thing, https://youtu.be/9hvfYvqS-bE though I think that mountain bike course may be a tad bit deadlier.
I had a tough time accepting people lived who would be crazy enough to ride that course, man. That was bat-$#!+ crazy.
