Bulldog and Blinky Ride Te Ranga
Rainbow Mountain, meaning ‘mountain of coloured earth’ is the home of the Te Ranga Mountain Bike Track in Rotorua, New Zealand. A volcanic past and 360 degree picturesque views, it’s also one of the many incredible trails that are managed by the Department of Conservation.
In this clip, Brook ‘The Bulldog’ MacDonald and fellow New Zealand downhill rider and friend, Sam ‘Blinky’ Blenkinsop, take us for a ride down the beautiful Te Ranga Mountain Bike track, where native vegetation is slowly regenerating and the views downhill, are just as amazing as at the peak.
Episode 2.6 of Trek World Racing's STORIES
Episode 2.6 takes place at the 26th UCI Mountain Bike Championships held for the first time in Andorra, in the Vallnord region. Watch as Laurie Greenland caps off a brilliant 2 years on the team by winning the World Championships, the 4th World Title won by the team since 2009. Brook and George battle the steep track showing good speed in the first 2 sectors of the track but come undone in the last sector. The World Champs are a one-run-race-to-glory format and it’s a battle of nerves even for the most seasoned riders on the circuit.
