road bike downhill

[BodyguardB]

more downhill please ^_^ thanks

[crislrb]

@BodyguardB I'll buy a GoPro HD to do more movies this year !

[jafaicandotcom]

Awesome descent!!  Beautiful place to cycle.

[ejfmoura]

quantos km de descida???

[crislrb]

@ejfmoura Acho que uns 5km de descida ... Não é muito íngreme mas o visual é sensacional. O vídeo não reproduz nem metade do que é ao vivo ... Abraços,

[mypspisdead]

cycling is a sport!!!!

[crislrb]

@mypspisdead Yes, for me cycling is THE sport !!! Thks !

[phaetto]

Thanks for the video! It was amazing!!!

[crislrb]

@phaetto Thank you ! I'll do more rides this year !!!

[MoisheKapoyr]

Yes, should've stayed in the main lane from the beginning.

[sikesy7]

this is scary

[swidd2]

I would've ridden inside the white line.

[Tepesh13]

a very nice way to spend some good time , keep it up guys!

[crislrb]

@Tepesh13 Thank you ! As I say here in Brazil "What drives me nuts is my work" ! Cycling is fun !!!

[Pent1um]

nice!

[crislrb]

@Pent1um Thanks !

[FerasDzZ]

wanna hit this downhill with my longboard ..!

[TheMango121]

I got up to 41 mph one time.. I about shit my pants. It was fun, but very scary!

[tenayo66]

Great ride

[crislrb]

@tenayo66 Thanks !

[24617427]

Nice hill, but speed wise pretty tame.

[crislrb]

@24617427 You're right ... It wasn't a amazing speed 'cos the downhill isn't too high and/or long but I was fun !!! Regards,

[EVAnSz]

Ahh man, wish I can come to Brazil for a ride too, wonder if anyone knows if that is legal to ride on a motorway like that in Scotland?

[stoddcrew]

Only do this with thick tire tubes (not the tire, the tube inside the tire). The thin racing ones will blow out hitting anything bigger than a pebble.

[atalayapark]

Fucking hell that looks fun!! Whenever i go over 30 i always think "now what would happen if i fall off now!"

[JamesBondSim9]

And now peddling back up the hill to get back to the car

[crislrb]

@JamesBondSim9 Unfortunately not ... We're in a 200 km trip to Araras,SP (city) that day. It was a one way downhill ... No uphills after that !

[grouperofdoubt]

That's an impressive descent! I'm a beginner to road biking, but I love the sport so far. I mainly commute, but I'd love to do distance in the future. In America, there are very few places as perfect as the descent shown in the video. I'd love to travel to European/South American countries that are more "biker-friendly".

[crislrb]

@grouperofdoubt Brazil isn't too much bike-friendly ... We have good places to ride but it's always risky ... I've been to Europe sometimes and there it's really a bike-friendly continent !!! Amazing !!!

[minibus1351]

62km/hr!! That is scary fast!!

[Tori17991]

Haha ! :P if u think thats a view u should seriously come to Norway!!! (y)

[EVAnSz]

@Tori17991 but isnt Norway snowing most of the year?

[Tori17991]

@EVAnSz Not really :P just some at the winter :)

[crislrb]

@Tori17991 Good to hear it !!! Maybe in 2013 I'll be in Norway for a ride !!! What are the places I should't miss them ?

[Tori17991]

@crislrb Ohh dear... Where should't u not miss :P Where ever u want man! :P check out some fjords, over a mountain.... I live in Jørpeland, which is very close to Pulpit rock which is very attractive (Just search on google! The view is mentally insane!)

[bluearrow27]

Quero ver pra voltar depois... hehe

[crislrb]

@bluearrow27 Tem razão ... Não subimos de volta porque a viagem era só de ida ... rsrsrs

Trecho Bauru-Araras, SP. Abraços,

[Kamikazenader]

Cara muito loko seu video...peguei minha primeira road bike antes de ontem e to tentando me adaptar ainda na bike rsrsrs....espero que vc faca mais videos como este .

Abracos daqui do Japao.

[crislrb]

@Kamikazenader Salve ! Cara, comprei mais uma câmera e quero filmar com ela, mas infelizmente estou sem tempo. Acho que até maio/2011 faço outro vídeo, mas na serra de Campos do Jordão ! Abraços, Valeu!

[superbubbleman]

This looks so fun and awesome

The wind rushing at your face must have felt amazing

[crislrb]

@superbubbleman It's true ! The wind makes me feel ALIVE !

It's a wonderful and amazing sensation ! Regards !

[mitija021]

boring

[crislrb]

@mitija021 I'll try harder next time !

Maybe 2 cameras, one at the helmet and other at the "fork" would give us a better sensation !

Thank you for the feedback.

[xias99]

@crislrb that was not boring, super cool! this guy obviously does not bike!

[manudrum2]

@mitija021 Certainly going up to 70 km/h is LESS boring that singing that shitty song you uploaded in yopur channel.

[RunningLemonStudios]

@manudrum2 lmao beautiful.

[WeslieJJ94]

@mitija021 Yeahh, but if you are on that bike its like fking hell !

[khk0510]

wow, i want to do that. mustve been fun

[crislrb]

@khk0510 Yes, it is! Try it ! You'll love it ! Thx

[Andrewolf79]

@khk0510 try DH mtb if u want a real thrill!!

[crislrb]

@Andrewolf79 I'll man ! Maybe in the end of this year ... I hope so !!! Which DH bike do you recommend ?

[mememe123xyz]

Thanks for the video. I am considering taking up cycling, and picking up my first road bike. Your video makes me want to start even more!

[crapediem999]

Nice ride dude! Looks awesome! I've never been to Brazil but now I have a good reason to go!

[crislrb]

@crapediem999 Yes, come to ride with us !

Brazil is a wonderful place ! Thanks,

[winter7878]

Woooow !!!!! I have Mountain Bike, but now in this time I choose a road bike, but it is very hard to choose right model or type for me , because there is a lot of road bikes in shops.

[daFranch1se69]

Where are the cars? It must be a lonely road in Brazil, nice new tarmac and no one driving on it but a bicyclist, that is the dream.

[crislrb]

@daFranch1se69 It was filmed in a Sunday morning after Christmas ... It was a good ride !

[glozick]

HAHHHAHAAHAHAHHAH

slow i am sorry..

and you had aero bars silly

[crislrb]

@glozick Slow 'cos the idea was to have fun and safety comes first ... The aero bars are because we are triathletes and didn't have time to change it ... Silly !

[Bhousm76]

enjoyed the ride!

[crislrb]

@Bhousm76 Thx !

[noki1119]

it's good

[crislrb]

@noki1119 Thx !

[marcostucchi84]

very well done my friends, very fast and safe... be safe out there!!!

[crislrb]

@marcostucchi84 Safety comes first ! Always ! Regards,

[pooohz]

those bikes are nice

[pcfxer]

Can I come?

[crislrb]

@pcfxer You are invited ! Come to ride with us ! Regards !!!

[gfwrestler13]

that looks like a lot of fun

[crislrb]

@gfwrestler13 It's really fun ! Enjoy the ride ! Regards !

[IntegratedDerivative]

Damn that looks like a lot of fun!

[crislrb]

@IntegratedDerivative It's really fun ! Enjoy the ride ! Regards !

[09is]

nice video

[crislrb]

@09is Thx !

[studboy66]

Which bikes did you use  ? Lovely video.

[crislrb]

@studboy66 I was riding the a Trek 5200 (carbon) the other rider has a VICINI model (brazilian) with nice Shimano wheels ! Thx !

[crazymonkey8888]

italiano?

[crislrb]

@crazymonkey8888 Brazilians ! Ma Io parlo un po de italiano perché sono andato in italia per due volte ! Arrivederci !

[aloysius444]

why are there no cars???

[crislrb]

@aloysius444 It was a Sunday morning just after Christmas .. It's 'cos there are no cars ... Regards !

[silverrwing]

simply amazing, I must go to Brazil one day, if not just to see the women.

[crislrb]

@silverrwing Women are better than Cycling in Brazil ... (laughing) ... Come for both ! Regards !!!

[daryl152]

Looks like lots of fun!

[crislrb]

@daryl152 You're right ! It's a lot of fun! Enjoy the ride ! Regards,

[flyinmiata118]

39 mph is not even fast for a downhill.... nice view i guess tho

[crislrb]

@flyinmiata118 You're right ! It's 'cos it isn't a "mountain" ... It's a small "hill" ... Thx !

[virsunen2]

very cool! thanks for the vid guys :)

[crislrb]

@virsunen2 Thx !

[paynebabes123]

maaan, that looks like a nice surface too!!

[crislrb]

@paynebabes123 It was a brand new highway !

[ConnorChubbs]

Wow!! that looks like sooo much fun! i road down a mountain and got to 35 mph and i was ready to pee my pants! you must be very experienced! :D

[biker4fun1]

Good thing that car didn't open it's door in front of the rider. That's too close a pass for me. I would have been out further in the traffic lane.

[CATALONIA1999]

They're so slow !!! I can ride more than 67 km/h in a flat sprint...

[crislrb]

@CATALONIA1999 Come to ride with us ! The idea is to be "the happiest" not "the strongest"... It was a ride not a final sprint in a competition !

[CATALONIA1999]

@crislrb Thanks for your invitation but I'm from Barcelona, Catalonia. A little far away... from us ;)

[crislrb]

@CATALONIA1999 Barcelona is great ! I've been there few years ago and I loved it ! Are you going to watch the tour the france at the Pirineus this year ? It's near Barcelona .. See you !

[CATALONIA1999]

@crislrb Well, It depends on If I have a cycling race or not.

[YERAULDA]

This was really amazing, very brave riding at that speed and it looked like a whole lot of fun !! I've recenly bought a bike and would love to have long open hills like this to speed down! Been up to just over 50 kmh and thought I was going to kill myself :-) Great video guys !!

[crislrb]

@YERAULDA Thank you !

[ysrfreak87]

Looks like a fun time. great video

[crislrb]

@ysrfreak87 Thank you !

[enzosilva]

Christiano, vc tem alguma ligacao com Juiz de Fora MG? O sobrenome Bellini e familiar, tem ate uma loja de bicicletas com esse nome.

[crislrb]

@enzosilva Não. Sou natural da cidade de Araras/SP. A "famiglia" veio da região do Vêneto, ITA. Abraços !

[gravitygrabber]

Cool vid - nice one, fellas.

[crislrb]

@gravitygrabber Thank you !

[itube134]

LOOKS FUN!

[crislrb]

@itube134 Yes, it's a lot of fun !!! Thank you !!!

[sandhujatt91]

Beautiful!!

[crislrb]

@sandhujatt91 Thank you !

[HLaB75]

Nice Ride, Nice Road

[crislrb]

@HLaB75 Thank you !

[janvarhol]

nice ride, keep on pedalling like this :)

[crislrb]

@janvarhol Thank you !

[helmivach]

Greta video guys, thanks for sharing ~

[crislrb]

@helmivach I hope I could film more, sooner ! Thank you !

[matheusdutrademoura]

É show. Já desci a serra gaúcha pela BR-116 e peguei um trecho muito parecido com este, e o clima estava idêntico. A única diferença é que na minha descida haviam carros em volta :(

[xtelevisionset]

Dunno if this would be more fun on my longboard or on my road bike.

[gravitygrabber]

Sweet video, guys.

[mop65]

I wish Britain had empty roads like these... I won't even mention the weather!

I just bought my first road bike, before I was using a mountain bike and anything over 30 mph was a challenge, the only problem is, we now have snow! Could be a hairy ride tomorrow.

[markingflash]

@mop65 Just wondering how much was your road bike i plan on buying one myself and don't have a clue how much they cost for lets say a normal/average one thanks.

[Botemedlet]

everywhere ranging from $400 to $1300 for a normal bike, then you go semi-pro up to $10 000... :)

[mop65]

@markingflash my bike was a Carrera Virtuoso from Halfords (I am presuming that you're from the UK!), which cost me £240. Didn't come across many road bikes for less than that. I would recommend it for a beginner, didn't take me too long to get used to, but make sure you're familiar with adjusting the gears, as mine were badly off when i got it and it caused me to crash in top gear when they slipped, the bike was written off! Halfords kindly replaced it though.

[00dibrah]

@mop65 thinking about getting a road bike, but not many places to ride it here in essex, any good makes/models you recommend?

[crislrb]

@mop65 I've a trek 5200, a Tarmac Specialized and a P3C Cérvelo ... If you are looking for a road bike, these makers are very good ! Enjoy ! Regards !!!

[eri12334]

how many gears is the bike you where driving

the bike the recorder was driving

[crislrb]

The bike is a TREK 5200 OCLV 120 carbon (2003) with 9 gears. (53/39 x 11/23). Regards,

[peckcrai]

that is 9 gears and you are going 80 kmh!

if you had a 21 speed it would go faster would it? like the CCM Presto

[pinmedown00]

Once, i test myself and cycled up Mount. Everest. Boy, was it tough....

[TheExPlOiTeDOne619]

Nice hill, wow!

[crislrb]

Thanks !

[gregysuper]

guys are the thingies that measure ur bike speed expensive?

[Chris050493]

They can be pretty cheap actually, depends what you want them to do and what quality you want. A cheap one with the simple function of just telling you how fast you're going can cost about £10 / $15-20. But it's a bit more if you want it to other stuff like tell you your average speed, max speed, trip distance, time taken, time feature, thermometer etc...

Hope this helps :P

[gregysuper]

thanks, ill go get one soon :P

[llamasrage]

not really, you can get a good one for <$25

[mimmymimmymim]

I got 67.5 mph out of my rigid Marin Point reyes. Speedo was calibrated well, Bike was on 26" mavics with Hope Pro 11's. Closest ive come to death on a bike in my life, I was basically out of control. Brakes made the bike weave until about 45, then it pulled straight.

[gregysuper]

did you try powersliding?

it stops u pretty fast XD

[kbob1395]

better hope theres no pot holes

[crislrb]

You're absolutely right !!! Regards,

[khwooter]

I've done 65mph like past 100kph here in guatemala on my mtb. Just need to find a steep smooth road.

[knokcs]

Bellini and Pascoalato....Italian surnames ;-)

[crislrb]

Si, e come ai italiani mi piace molto il ciclismo !

Yes, and like to italians I like cycling a lot !

[shorerydr10]

you guys gotta go 100km/h

[crislrb]

We need to find a bigger downhill. There is too much wind in here. The maximum we did was 82 km/h in another downhill.

[tngdriftteam]

i made my bike i got to 69 made fast you feel like your a king when you hit high speeds

[shorerydr10]

yah so true. I've gotten to 75 before, but i really wanna get to 100 some day... i just need ot find a bigger hill

[BrunoCarrilho]

I've a MTB TREK FUEL EX8 2009....my top speed until now was 72km/h :) my disc brakes release sparks :D I'm try to film it one of these days and show you.

[douwethaman]

i live in Norway, and me and a friend made 71 KM/H in a downhill with mountainbike! that was AWESOME!

[recon455]

That's not that fast... even on a mountain bike.

[douwethaman]

but its faster then the cars are allowed to drive, we drove past cars! that was fun=D

[Fr4nkWh1te]

71 on a mtb is bloody fast, stop bragging fool. of course there's always someone faster but on a mtb thats very fast, especially if you havent got state of the art suspension and wheels

[recon455]

It's 72 KILOMETERS per hour. That's only 44mph. Maybe if you live in the flattest place on Earth that is fast, but anyplace with a hill this can be done.

Do you know what you're talking about?The guy I replied to has a Trek Fuel EX8 which is getting into Trek's race XC bikes with the nice suspension and wheels(even though suspension will slow you down when you hammer).

72kph(44mph) is "fast" but it sure isn't "bloody fast."

[myrs4]

this is so awesome, can't wait to get my own bike!!!

[yowi12]

i made 55 km/h downhill. it feels insane worth to try.

got new bike :D

[crislrb]

Cheers ! That's the spirit of cycling !!!

[TheSanderz]

Brazil looks like it has a great road infrastructure.

[crislrb]

In "São Paulo" state it is truth, but not for the whole country unfortunately.

[TheSanderz]

Yeah. :(

[antony21165]

why are there no cars

[crislrb]

It was filmed just 2 days after Xmas day (holiday), near to the lunch time and in the "countryside" of Sao Paulo state in Brazil.

[jbrstockport]

That does look fun. I cant wait till I get rid of my stupid BMX and get a proper bike.

[tokomtelevanmar]

fucking boring,i do 75km/h last week with my old road bike

[crislrb]

IRL it's faster than it looks like. Only those who did it know. We have better descent here to get 75 kph.... The idea was to capture the "landscape" not the speed. Regards,

[gregysuper]

yup man I <3 ur country.

Greece is full of cars :(

Oh well, I still bike, but I do it in the side, I nvr go in the lane like u do :P

[crislrb]

Here we ride in the "emergency lane" only, but at some roads with low traffic it is easy to go to the main lane. Regards !

[bigbatmike]

haha i cant wait my road bike gets here tomarrow morning and i bought a spedometer, i cant wait to test it out

[crislrb]

hello bigbatmike,

Have you already tested you bike ?

[dmxmj13]

I can't imagine! i have been riding here around my town in the states, in flat road at around 25 miles per hour, and it feels great. I can't imagine going 50 down hill. That would rock!

[SophistAtheist]

yeah, there is a video where a guy goes 92 kmph thats fucking insane

[crislrb]

Goind downhill is awesome ! Try it ! You'll love ...but as I've said before use the proper safety equipament ! Regards,

[dirtybassist]

awesome

[pewse]

losing your front tire in those speeds would suck :)

[Kirbymcbadass]

That's an awesome road. I wanna ride it.

[CiaranRooney125]

Very Nice :) Thats Why I'm Saving Up For A Road Bike I Was On My Friends One We Live In Ireland And I Hit About 64 Mph Going Down The Side Of The Long Coastal Road The Adrenaline Rush Was Mad

[zulonz]

Why Do You Start Every Word With A Capital Letter?

Sentences should look like this!

[pamlico140]

Holy crap thats fast. My father once hit 55mph on an Allegro road bike going downhill.

[fmadu2]

55mph!!!!!! Thats more than 100km/h!!!!!!

[generalducttape]

/fail. 1 kilometer is 0.6 mile. That's why on a spedometer in a car the 60 mph mark is at 100 km/h.

[ccclllsport]

you think thats fast skiing down a mountain going 90-100 mph on two planks is insane

[crislrb]

Skiing is awesome! We don't have snow here but I've already skied in US. I didn't got 90 mph that time but it was fast enought. Regards,

[ccclllsport]

iv just got a road bike and its hilly where i live and i was going down some steep bendy mountain roads yesturday day and i take it back road biking is just as awesome as a skiing

[volure1]

yea road bike are the bomb i have one their meant for speed light weight mountain bike are ok but they are more durable if u hit a pot hole in the road for my experience your bike go flying and ur wheel kinda wables
