A few days back I shared a video of a pro-rider racing through the streets of Valparaiso, Chile as part of the urban downhill race that is held there each year. The course for the race includes some unexpected obstacles, including stairs, narrow streets, jumps, ramps, and a variety of other challenges. This video, which comes our way courtesy of EpicTV, is the winning run that posted by Filip Polc who had his GoPro camera on the entire way. Needless to say, it is a quite the clip, and not for the faint of heart.
