The lands got wider and rougher,the orcs got fiercer and Uglier,the photos got better and better.Sauron doesn't stand a chance against the Fellowship of Big Mountain and Enduro.

This is the Grande Sassiere, and its an epic. Check out a couple of epic vids we made this summer of the full descent!

I can only imagine how amazing that would be, beautiful all around and some fun riding. Like something out of a dream.
