The lighter, cross country brother of the bike below. Still looks like it would rip downhill though.

Leogang lightning and crashing sucks

I didn’t crash mountain biking for as long as I have lived here in Salzburg, and today, in two runs, I crashed twice!

I hate crashing. It puts the fear of the gods into you and it bloody hurts. I guess I came off ok considering. Just got a really sore leg/ankle/foot and torn up forearms. The first time I came up short on a big double, and both my feet flew off the pedals. I flew over the next double which was directly after it, with no feet on the pedals, careened off the side of the track, dropped about 2 meters to another path below, and if that wasn’t bad enough, I then got brought to a standstill finally by an electric cattle fence which i got stuck under and which proceeded to to give me mad electric shocks! Ouch!

haha. Shit.

Got to get straight back on the horse and all that, but on the next run I lost grip in both tires simultaneously and hit the ground again tearing up my thigh and the other forearm! Bloody hell! Was more my pride dented that time though, and shortly after a massive lightening/thunder/hail storm rolled in and they stopped the lift. Was just in time I guess, as when the adrenaline wore off I could hardly put any weight on my left leg. Still, nothing broken and it was a pretty fun day anyway riding with some good friends!

Wagrain Bike park full runs

So we filmed 5 runs on the weekend at Wagrain, 2 with the helmet camera pointing forward and 2 pointing back, and I did a few other shots with the 550d. We filmed top to bottom without stopping so the vid is quite long (and boring if you are not into biking I guess). Its also a little small on this page and looks obviously much better fullscreen and in HD on the vimeo site here. I think we didnt have the helmet angle quite right, but its tricky since there is no playback screen on the GoPro. Benny is in black with purple bars, me in white tee and helmet.

Wagrain Video grabs

We shot some footage yesterday from Wagrain Bike park with the GoPro and also with the 550D which I wanted to test on action footage. I will try to put together an edit but here are some still frames for now.

All photos shot with Canon 550D with a 35mm fixed prime lens. It didnt really stop raining all day and the light was terrible in the woods so it was tricky to get the camera settings right, but I was pretty happy with some of the shots.


The whole side of the mountain was a mudbath.


Rachel Atherton was favorite to win but crashed out.

We went and checked out the UCI worldcup downhill in Leogang today. Was pretty epic. Finally starting to get to grips with the 550D on full Manual mode. Got quite a lot of photos which I will try to get up soon. Here are some of Santa Cruz Alps rider Greg Minaar who won in a pretty exciting race.


was A LOT of press there,

We walked all the way up to the start of the track and then pretty much ran all the way back down as the riders came down one by one. Craig was missing his bike but did a pretty decent wallride anyway.
