RAW Video: Getting Up to Race Speed Ahead of Lourdes
Sometimes all you need is a good few minutes of unfiltered raw riding to get you stoked for the season, so that’s exactly what our dutch Canyon CLLCTV downhill ambassador Tristan Botteram set out to capture in his pre-season banger.
Preparing for a world cup season, as the trails begin to thaw out in the northern hemisphere, he headed to some Belgian tracks with his Sender CFR before he hits the road on the way to the first race of the season, Lourdes, France.
You can follow Tristan on his Instagram Instagram and through the CLLCTV channel as we share the action from our riders throughout the season.
The last stretch of the off-season before racing finally gets back underway.

Give this kid the opportunity to train in all those exotic places during winter, and some factory suspension, like a lot of other world cup riders, and he will be very, very fast.
With the minimal higher altitude tracks he’s able to ride during winter he’s already doing extremely well.
Dude works sooo hard to reach his goals. Big respect.-
As far as I know there’s a legal trail system there now..
yoooo koeens whadd up jongen
