Megavalance 2018 video
This crazy bastard won with a time of 38 MINUTES 55 Seconds and won by a 48 second margin.
How does even know where to go? I would have been lost on the first of the one million turns.

I thought the track was pretty well defined.

Frick that. But I would love to ski all over that hill.

I tried downhill mountain biking one time. Walking 2 miles out of the woods with a broken collarbone is no fun so I never tried it again.

I bet he took a lift up there, like a big pussy.

19:25 is a funny moment.

How were the tires able to survive? Lots of rough rocks with what looked to be sharp edges.
I liked seeing the observers every so often just to make sure no short cuts were enjoyed.

Some racers probably did pop a tire on those rocks. But mountain bike tires are pretty tough and designed to take a licking.

I'm betting his tires are a couple hundred a piece. There hardcore guys don't really mess around. They're insufferable to speak to though.

I am watching the snow at the start and thinking that wouldn't be so bad to go down on. Then they got to the rocks and the forest. Pretty sure falling on those rocks or smacking a tree head on at that speed would kill you.

That was fun. Thanks for posting.

Watch from the back of the pack, the snow gets terrible the further back you go. They basically start walking. Love these races, so much fun to watch.

Probably not as crazy for the camera rider, because he cheats.

Wait, isn't this the same mountan the Tour DF goes UP in a stage?

That was pretty cool. I would have gotten lost. Or in a ravine with broken limbs. Sonny Bono'd into a tree. It would end badly.
