Me and my team mate spent 2 days up at Big Bear riding our downhill bikes. The trails up there are fun, some nice jumps, good turns... Good riding here to get ready for some high speed riding up Mont Sainte Anne next weekend!
Munich, July 24th 2014 – Finally we are hitting the road and the legend returns to Nuremburg on September 6th. After a three-year break the Red Bull District Ride is back in the historic city of Nuremberg. Not only 24 of the world’s best riders are eagerly awaiting the mountain bike event of the year, but also the 75,000 expected fans to go wild between Nuremberg’s Kaiserburg and the City Square. Get a first glimpse of what is about to come with the brand-new teaser clip
Three times Nuremberg’s inner city has already been turned into one of the world’s most exciting urban freeride Parks – in 2005, 2006 and 2011. On September 6, Red Bull District Ride will be back in the Franconian metropolis attracting an expected 50.000 fans as well as the world’s top international freeride bike athletes. On top of that Red Bull District Ride is the only German stop on the FMB World Tour with Diamond Series status.
It was a real thriller of a final at yesterday’s Swatch Prime Line Munich. Dark thunder clouds loomed over Munich’s Olympic Park as finals were about to begin. Once the crowd had gathered to witness the action, the weather gods were kind and cleared the sky. Right on point, the 16 qualified riders dropped in, in heats of 4, pulling everything out of the bag to make it into the finals. In the end, Frenchman Louis Reboul grabbed the top spot on the podium, leaving Swatch Proteam rider Sam Pilgrim (GBR) and Tomas Lemoine (FRA) with second and third.
18 years old Drew Carters, one of the most skilled young DH riders from Scotland, took his bike all the way to the french Alps to race the Megavalanche for the first time in his life. He was supported in his brave attempt by MET's all-new Parachute, the world's lightest full face helmet. Enjoy! #incaseofmountains
