Ride The Rocks With Richie Rude
When it comes to enduro racing, the USA's Richie Rude is the fastest rider in the world at the minute. Yes, the sport has other big names capable of taking wins, but none of them can match the brute force and ability to win anywhere and any time that Rude boasts.
He took us to Mountain Creek Bike Park in New Jersey to tackle some wet rocks for our Sound of Speed series. Richie's sheer physical size and strength is obvious, but his style remains incredibly fluid and smooth.

Wilder Kaiser Extreme
Johannes Pistrol rides the Steinerne Rinne from Goinger Halt, July 2014. The upper section from the summit down to the upper rinne is relatively straight forward, albeit slightly exposed. The lower section contains the hardest and the most futuristic riding. Johannes didn't clear all sections but this attempt is the most I have seen ridden so far.
