Redbull Hardline

Post by Taylor »

Nothing to do with bikepacking but it is riding a bike.
I believe it's in one of Mr Barrington's forests.

I'd be mincing so badly I'd probably need my overnight kit it'd take me so long.

The video has flattened it somewhat. It's difficult to walk down, and the road jump at the bottom - well, it's big :shock:

I'd want someone to flatten it a bit, take some trees out and get rid of those nasty rocky bits. Then I think I could get down it (might pass on the jumpy bits though).

I can never get my head round how fast these guys are - just processing the terrain makes my head hurt and that's before picking lines and controlling the bike. Properly impressive stuff.

Ian's right ... knowing which valley side the course is, really makes you appreciate just how steep it is - bonkers :-bd

Nope, this is much nearer BB Towers.
