This is Stevie Smith’s Japanese MTB adventure

Stevie Smit had never stepped foot in Japan prior to filming Ring of Fire. The trip would prove to be a real eye-opener for the Pro Canadian mountain bike downhill racer.

Filming for Ring of Fire was set to take place at Miyake Island, an island 180km due south of Japan's capital Tokyo. The objective of the trip was to capture Stevie riding a trail covered in lava and volcanic ash. Accompanying him to film the whole thing was renowned mountain bike and cycling filmmaker Clay Porter.
