Glacier Bike Downhill Saas Fee 2012 

Make this an Olympic sport now! Alpine Bike Downhill!

OMG !!! you were behaded at the end ! But... I see no blood ! another rider was holding your head... maybe the winner ? so your head was a trophy ?

God damn I hate the running starts. Them feels when you can't find your bike

i have never experienced a video like this before. how can something be so relaxing to watch but at the same time be so exciting. that was so cool.

i would die for this, the rush of going down the mountian, with the awesome scenery. You really cant get much better in a downhill bike race

The best 10:20 minutes watching a video!

this was the craziest thing ive ever seen. not only did i not know you could bike on glaciers, but the way the race started. holy hell you guys go fast in this

for some reason I kept waiting for a snow mobile to come zooming past you

oh my gosh this looks like the best worst idea EVER!

DAMN man! I would love to go on a race like this. I would probably be more at the back since i dont have the balls and i am pretty rusty.

For the first time in my life, I want a mountain bike! My road and cyclocross bikes wouldn't be able to handle this. Simply amazing!

I've been watching a lot of mountain biking and redbull biking videos lately, but this!! BY FAR, looks like the funnest.

I have never seen anything that looks as fun as this in my life.

i really like it that there are people that don´t edit there videos and they still look great!

i really want to try this some day. glacier biking has been added to my bucket list

Well done!!! That was truly amazing riding. Love how he passes a ton or riders about a third through. Just rolls on by them. Obviously he's way more comfortable with the speed than the others.

This video contains a load of oddly dressed bike thiefs who try and a out run the cops.

Awesome, hard to properly describe all the cool things about this. The temp., the altitude, proper athletes at the front, so much better than tin top racing (cars)... Unfortunately the craze is certainly now going to be a CRAZE. Cheers Andreas!

The first few minute of the race is absolutely hair raising. Awesome race footage.

One of the coolest bike races I've seen!

Nothing says "brutal fast downhill race" like the finish line song. Soooooo pumped bro!

i literally watched it back to back. amazing sport.

took my bike in the snow the other day and couldn't stay straight for more than 5 seconds

i had no idea people did this. this is so awesome

shortest 10 minutes ever!

Can't wait for the better movie with sound.

proof that the mountain bike (the bicycle) is and always will be the worlds best ATV

It's called a Le Mans start and is a tradition in many races. It started with a type of automotive race and is still popular in cyclocross bicycle racing.

Read the description. This video is just raw footage. He's going to make an edited video with music i.e. sound.

looks like loads of fun! All that speed with none of the rocks to worry about.

You, sir, are my new hero.

awesome cam sound and ride down the mountain.

This isn't even Downhill anymore. It's down-mountain! SICK!

best 10 mins i've ever spent on youtube...

Thank you for original sound.

does this race works with teams, or anyone can just inwrite himself?

Superb.. Thank you for this amazing ride

Nice riding man. You were going hella fast

1st place... 10th place... doesn't matter, you still had loads of fun!!!

Much respect, that looks insane! Would definitely like to give it a shot.

Damn that's crazy ! 124 km/h ! Thanks for sharing !

Watched a lot of mountain bike extreme video, but I see this for the first time! At this speed, the snow-covered road! It will be exciting! Where to find the best quality?

I love how it's a slow pass in those long straights.

this looks so freaking fun!!!!!!! you started taking off on them around 1:30 - 2:00 .....I used to think I'd have loved to go skydiving .....compared to this? fuck that lol

Fast and Clean man...when the track get narrow is scares...

That looks incredibly fun!

the only thing I need now is the GUI on the screen to be watching the most awesome videogame!

Yeah! Wow what an speed, and all those trees.... Respect!

Weltklass, bravo! Eis vo da bischti werbefilm für Saas-Fee woni je gseh han ;-)

it is a gopro. they are automatically formatted in this aspect ratio

That was strangely satisfying!

I'm watching this because it was part of our Physical Geography course. We are currently learning about glaciers. This was INTENSE! Did you guys have a practice run? Thanks for sharing this video.

thats bad ass broski up load something on this level again!

This looks like an awesome ski run!!!!

i wanna do that

Holy friggin hell, this is the craziest damn thing I have ever seen. And I've seen crazy...

great video man. awesome adrenaline rush.

Super cool dude and thanks for sharing with us this video ...I would love to do this...Where is this at again?

Looks sooo much fun!

Fantastic....& way more courage than I have !

i had to watch this, i saw a bike on snow going downhill first thought "this is going to cause some pain"

You should of had a playing card in the spokes for this one. Would've sounded like one hell of a motorcycle

I wish i was you this looks like an awesome speed downhill track

un paisage presioso

Nice riding man! You're fast as hell! This is sooo soo gastah of a race!!!

This looks like a ton of fun!

This needs to be in the Winter Olympics.

awesome speed man.i want to try it .please say me the location of this

eventhough it past two years, i still want to try this one day

sick. do you think skiing or biking on the same trail would be faster? proly biking on the flat sections. but what about overall?

freakin scary to go that fast on snow.. I`m in the mood for skiing now ;)

Damn. That lasts awhile too. So sick.

Incidentally, great video, the ambient sound is cool. Never descended a mountain that quickly myself, it normally takes hours! RING! RING! "Hey bro I'm down in the village, I picked-up. Where are you? We were supposed to meet half an hour ago!" "Ah I'm still up at the summit..." "Up at the summit?! Fuck's sake man, I'm getting itchy skinning-up fingers here, you'll be hours still, that's miles away!" "Nah, don't worry, I got my bike, I'll be there in ten minutes, mate." "Cool."

I'm pretty sure that would be awesome as hell and scary as hell at the same time. Especially if you were going down a glacier. Well thats another thing added to me To Do list.

That's crazy, it looks like so much fun.

100 on asphalt feels pretty sketchy, but more than that on snow.... Thats epic.

This is freak in awesome!! what was your max speed?

+Skyle Balls+Crouching for low center or gravity+Being VERY focused I'd assume

Looks like so much fun, is 40 years old too old to take up the sport? great video mate

wow this is absolutely the best parkour.

This looks like great fun, I would love to try that, awesome.

Love it, are the scottish lads who you can hear at the beginning with you Andu n did you get some of the big fat doobie?? :)

what speed did you guys hit? it looked amazing!

I thought i saw spikes on the tires. do they come w/spikes? i watched the intire vid, w/out shitting on my self. great vid man!

This looks awesome! I must do it.

I'm really curious to know what kind of speeds they were hitting. It looks damn fast!

THAT IS AMAIZNG! IM GOING THERE!

Awesome ride, mate! Cheers!

Wow. What kind of gloves are worn for this? Looks soo cold

2:20 "I should pedal to go a bit faster" 2:21 "Arg, I'm gonna fall"

man if i had a place like this, would i ever get off my snowboard....

THIS LOOKS FUN AS HELL!!!

Dude this is sick, i am hoping to take part this year all going well, the start is so fucking cool....awesome day for it great film

THIS IS FKN AWESOME! Could you wipe out and crash? What if you put some wings on a bar that would fold out when you activated them, and they would lock into place when you get up to speed? Like handglider. Would you lift off? Could you fly? I wonder....or am I just too high? Seriously, would it work?

What kind of safety gear do you wear? This would be like falling of a motorcycle at similar speeds.

I'm assuming they're using spiked tires so more than you might think.

And when the race ends: "Shit, I forgot my phone at the top!" :D By the way excellent vid!

Respect for 2 wheel skills.

Yeah, you can buy snow tires for your bike :D Trust me it makes this so much easier. I tried to DH on snow with my fixed without snow tires and I was slipping everywhere.

Holy shit balls! That looks like a lot of fun.
