True Freeride: Darren Berrelcloth’s 2000 Foot Hike-a-Bike

Looks doable…

No disrespect to the Claw, but I’ve done bigger hike-a-bikes. Does look great fun.

That’s a weirdly retro video isn’t it? It could be 1999. Looks awesome, but somehow the long shots, the countdown, the fact that its got Spesh branding on it, the dust cloud and the turns places it on a VHS that came free on the front of a copy of MBUK with Will Longden in it. Lovely. 🙂

Yup it definitely has a ring of DIRT about it. Still awesome though 🙂

Really nice line there, especially as he didn’t try to pull a 360-flip-to-look-down-with-crotch-grab-x-up off every rock and bump on the way down.
Is hike-and-bike the new heli-biking? It had the mood of a distant valley set in the wilderness. I was expecting him to coast up to a heli at the bottom, with its rotors idly turning and waiting for the riders to get their fill of fresh tracks, before thumbing an uplift back into the hills.
