Harald Philipp & Tom Oehler reveal a story long lost. A bicycle hanging in a climbing route guards the entrance to a vast mountain range. The story leads us to two guys who almost invented the mountainbike and killed themselves in only one day. Watch the story unfold...

Alternatively, just marvel at the riding skills and scenery Eye-wink

Just brilliant... the Europeans have such a more open and liberal approach to adventure. Could you imagine trying to do something like this in the OZ alps? (not nearly as cool though cause our Alps are pretty flat), and heaven forbid that bike tyres might dare to roll across a walking track in a National park here in Sydney or NSW.
Nanny's would be jumping out from behind trees everywhere to issue fines!

This was on at the Banff Film Festival last night. I almost shouted out at the end, "I hope they have a license to ride there!" Eye-wink

Amazing scenery. Smiling

So will we see Bloot busting out those trials skillz on his Liteville? Eye-wink

I don't deserve to ride after watching that. Those guys would surely love a little single track flow.
