Red Bull Rampage, Competencia de Ciclismo Extremo en las montañas [Fotos / Video]

Si pensabas que montar bicicleta en la avenida era peligroso, échale un vistazo a estas fotos de infarto tomadas en una de las competencias mas extremas en todo el universo.

Haciendo una mezcla de alpinismo libre y ciclismo extremo, el Red Bull Rampage busco los mejores ciclistas freestyle de montaña alrededor del mundo para hacer un cara-a-cara en una desafiante competencia de maniobras mortales.

La competencia tuvo lugar en la rocosa área cerca de Virgin, Utah, EE.UU., donde los ciclistas se tiraron al precipicio y debían llegar a la meta mientras hacían trucos para acumular puntos. O sea, no solo tenia que sobrevivir, tambien tenían que hacer piruetas todo el camino para complacer al jurado.

Aqui algunas imagenes y un video de la competencia de Red Bull Rampage.
