Snow biker hits 65mph

Incredible action from the slopes of Châtel, France where the UCI Snow Bike World Championships went down over the weekend.

Athletes from around the world hopped on specially designed bike equipped with spike tires to race in the Super G and Dual Slalom events on ski slopes where they achieved peak speeds exceeding 100km/h (62mph).

Going highway velocity on a bike with ideal road conditions is wild, doing it on snow is truly unbelievable. Cheers to all the racers.
