Riding to coastal ridges on the Basque coast. It looks sketchier than it actually feels, the trail is fast but you would have to be really, really cock up to get over the edge. If you did then it would be a long tumble to a fast drowning!
Selected by Ian Hylands - I love this shot! And it's a long ways from the world of the World Cup DH in SA right now, so it's really refreshing after staring at DH pics all day. It also makes me wonder what's on the other side, and it looks like a lot of fun to ride...
Cheers guys. To be honest it's not that scary at all, the trail sort of takes your eye and you hardly even notice the fall to the side. You just have to remember to stop before you look at the view.
Thanks for the comments guys. The trail goes down to the left and cuts back on itself. We take a small boat journey and then ride past those two headlands and San Sebastian is on the other side with the beach, sunbathers and beer! Normally we have a few beers and then take the train back to the start of the loop.
It's really not that scary when you're there. If you look over the 1st bit of water there's a little lighthouse right by the water, there's steps cut into the rocks there that drop to that lighthouse... that's properly scary!
