Action Cam by Sony Presents: Dream Capture -- Episode III "One Million Down" with Adam Billinghurst
Mountain bikers seem to have an unwavering desire to challenge how far they can push their limits. For some, it means jumping farther. For others, it means riding a line that terrifies them. For Whistler legend Adam Billinghurst, it meant attempting to descend one million vertical feet as quickly as possible.
Watch Adam Billinghurst in One Million Down as he takes on one of his life goals of achieving 1 million vertical feet on his bike. "I've wanted to ride 1,000,000 vertical feet in the bike park for almost 10 years now. You don't get to do a million of a lot of things. The things you do, you rarely think about: how many breaths you've taken, grains of rice you've eaten, said the word 'and'. It just seemed like a good number."

Surviving A FORCE OF NATURE
When the bike park first opened for the season in May there were 151 days of riding and endless summer nights. Now there are only 15 days left before the Whistler Mountain Bike Park closes and summer is officially over. This video portrays the spirit of truly dedicated riders. Whether they are gunning it down gnarly lines or easing their way around berms for the first time, downhill fanatics don't let cooler temperatures and a little rain get in their way. They take advantage of precious laps while they still can, all with a smile on their face and dirt, well, everywhere.
Whistler Mountain Bike Park closes for the season on October 14, 2013.
64 days until winter opening of Whistler Blackcomb.

Living A FORCE OF NATURE Lula Darquier
"A few years after moving to Whistler to ski, mountain biking became my life. The girls at Women's Nights became my friends and my job was something I did between biking and sleeping. Riding the Park is now my home and the people and experiences here allow me to live it". - Lula Darquier, Whistler Mountain Bike Park Team Rider.
