On BBC Sounds. Sounds bonkers. The programme is from Colombia.

I heard this-
Complete insanity- esp with no helmets, and poor brakes. Maybe we should have a whip around and send them some?
And some body armour?
And some really loud bells??
I caught this on the world service (assignment) last week, sounds quite a thrill but I’d want full leathers and helmet/protection, don’t fancy the skin grafts when you crash at 130km/hr
Worth an image search for ‘gravitosos’
Is that tandem jeremy? Not sure if the one in front is wearing a helmet or not.
the one in rear should be wearing some kind of protection too.
Got to be honest, as I heard the concerned R4 voice talking about young folk risking their low-valued lives for a thrill, I was thinking I quite fancy a go.
Ha as a result of this thread I've obviously tinged my Youtube algorithms with Colombian gravity action 🙂
Isn't that how most of us spent our youth? Perhaps without Pablo and the cartel hanging around in the background though.
Going far too fast down dangerous hills with no helmet or protection and questionable brakes?
