Urban BMX Chilean Style

Great headcam video of Valparaiso Cerro Abajo Race in Chile, a downhill bike race through the streets of the city. Don’t hit the dog around 0:40 into the run. :shout:

Holy crap, that’s impressive.

Thats absolutely nuts. especially the narrow stairs with the railing right next to ya, just imagine clipping one of those rails with a pedal or the handlebar:eek:. And some of the lines they force you to take are really sketchy. From what I can tell eating it would be disasterous on that course, concrete isn’t very forgiving.

Wow! That is insane. I have ridden down stairs on a bicylcle, but I am certain I couldn’t do that.

The rider in the video is very talented and seriously skilled at riding a bike.

Thanks for sharing.

Some people love football, some baseball, etc… I could care less… But I LOVE Mountain Biking and that was one heck of an impressive URBAN run! A few of those ramp jumps were amazing!

Thanks for the link, now downloaded…

All on a purple bike!! :smiley: Dude, sign me up! That course sure beats the heck out of most of the off road trails around my house, except for maybe Uwharrie Nat’l Park.

Looks like something right out of a Bourne movie lol. This guy has talent. I absolutely love mountain biking but here in Florida down hill mountain biking is sort of… non existant.

Now I’m jonesing for a little bit of Game Boy’s Paper Boy…that dog is awesome, dude looks like he is surfing the back of it for a sec.

The rider’s chuckle at around 2:31 after an insane ramp jump is priceless!:smiley:

Fucking inspiring! I cant wait 'til the trails dry up around here!

That damn dog. I swear I heard that dog growl at the guy. It was impressive to say the least. I dug how the guy chuckled when he landed on a ramp and the crowd went crazy. :haha:
