  • This week we packed the enduro bikes in the car and headed off to the last UCI World Cup Downhill event of the year at Val Di Sole Bikepark, with the famous Black Snake Trail. We didn't hear any good words about the trail from the riders, saying it was 'too rough' and 'too many rocks'. We didn't believe them so we thought we'd check it out for ourselves and report back to you guys at home.
    Turns out the riders weren't lying, it's the roughest and craziest track I've ever experience in my 15 year World Cup Downhill career, the Scott Ransom Tuned held up very well with only 180mm of travel on the front and 160mm on the back. I managed to not push down any sections which I was proud of.
    Got a great week of content lined up for you guys, let us know in the comments what you'd like to see in the future as well.

    It was a real honour to meet and talk to you there, you have always been one of my favourite riders and you were really friendly and kind. Thank you

    It's like you read my mind. Watching the race I wondered how it would be to ride the Black Snake on an Enduro bike and not at race pace. Thanks for sharing the experience!

    I mean BF has done some gnarly shit in his career and even this he's honest and humble. Great video man

    So gnarly, not even wearing knee pads! Really enjoy the vids you guys put out.

    Should definitely do some more of these videos. Amazing to see how difficult these courses are at slower speed but still about 50 times faster than I would try. To be honest, wouldn't even try in the first place. Nuts

    This would be cool to see for every World Cup track. After the race is over, just send it on an enduro bike so that viewers can understand the level of gnar that these tracks are

    I'm going to go ride down the gnarliest track ever on my enduro bike, in my clam-shell and zero pads.... oh and I'm going to do it blind as well. Good stuff!!!

    How good would this be as a series next year? Maybe Brendog does Wcups on his hardtail 2023?

    Today (the day after you taped this), I rode the Val Di Sole bikepark on my 170/160 bike. I watched the finals and to be honest, never even considered the Black Snake rideable.

    The pros make these tracks just look so easy on camera. Yet in reality they're gnarly as hell and you'd need to be a very accomplished rider just to make it down at all!

    Another amazing vid, it’s really interesting to see a professional point of view on these tracks. You should do a lot more of these types of vid.

    This is just MENTAL!!

  • @kate-birdsommer8139

    Absolutely insane conditions for anyone. They seem to not care for any of the riders, especially world cup... speed, horrific. Just to line their pockets! Sad and sickening. Thank you, Brendan

    That was Awesome. We all know how tough that track was but watching a really good rider try it on an enduro bike really puts it into perspective. keep up the good work.

    Thank you for finally turning the camera when Brendog points and says "....down there..." haha.

    The production on this is as sick as the riding, great work Benny and Bren!
