This weekend’s Erzberg Rodeo experienced an incredible 99.7 percent attrition rate. Only seven of the 1,800 riders who entered reached the finish line. “This mountain is merciless,” exclaimed winner Jonny Walker. “They sent us through hell again.”

I would enjoy all of the first 15 minutes… then spend the next half the day wondering what the hell I was thinking.
totally badass race!
I always loved watching this race…the speed in which these guys traverse such technical sections is simply absurd. I can say racing the Baja 500 and 1000 is on my bucket list but this, sadly, is just not in the cards.
Place is insane.
here are 20 checkpoints throughout the 35 km course to pass through and only 4 hours to complete them in.
