Delicious images. I was especially fond of the 7th point, "we are small" - the same thing goes through my head every time I get to ride in the Alps.

Just one question, what did you use for those high-altitude shots (e.g. at 02:34)? Was it a cablecam, or something else?

Thanks!

We did this with a RC Microcopter. :-)

I'd say VOD . Really some incredible angles throughout the video

Friendship - people from different background come together to do and enjoy the same thing and share the experience . 1:04 priceless expression.

1 - For every long ride going up youll have a fun ride going down
2 - Dont loose where to head north
3 - Protect yourself
4 - Always get up if you fall
5 - Know your limits but never give up.
Life its good

Should be VOD - without question. I would have been proud to shoot anything half as good as this

Be focused when you ride your bike.

That's what I learned...
