This is the Prep Day before the Megavalanche race and the course is one of the greatest singletracks I've ever seen, stretching down from a Volcano rim (@ 2200meters in altitude) all the way to the sea...

 now that is the best riding video i have seen in a long time , i mean , this vid is Collective-Anthill good. and the trail...Jeezz...from exposed dry peek to lush forest on a narrow flowy single track.it cannot be better IMO. yhea , partpating in those avalanche cup races must be way at the top of the top races you can do. So unique. ...altough....they have to get rid of that awful...most anoying...impossible ...bad bad euro dance song that they blast off loud speakers at the start of every stage....

 The fastest guys take about 50 mins from top 2200m to bottom 0, which is a 30 km long downhill.
