Recently, the UCI (Union Cycliste International) held its World Cup Downhill championship in Cairns, Australia. In that race, Josh Bryceland placed second, while wearing a GoPro camera on his helmet. That run down the hill can be viewed in its entirety below, giving us all an opportunity to see what world-class mountain bikers are capable of on a highly technical trail. It looks like a lot of fun. I’m also glad I wasn’t the one on the bike. Otherwise, this video would just be a series of crashes.
