The six mile descent from the top of Fox Hollow Rd to the bottom where Fox Hollow intersects with W. Amazon Dr. The top of Fox Hollow is 1427 feet in elevation and W. Amazon is 458 for a net drop of 969 vertical feet over 6 miles. The descent has some steep sections, as well as some rollers on the way down. It's a relitively easy non-technical descent good for all abilities. I actually prefer to climb up Fox Hollow as it's a protracted 6 mile and then descend down the backside to Mcbeth Rd. (See the first video of the Old Guys Going Downhill Fast for the Fox Hollow to McBeth ride.) Either direction, it's a great ride. The route was popular enough for Burley (when they were still making road bikes) to name one of their road racing bikes the "Fox Hollow" after this route.

  • What kind of video camera are you using? Brand & model number please! This is a great bicycling video!

  • @shadeofdreams It's a GoPro HD Hero camera on setting r3 (1280x720p at 60 frames per second). It's mounted to the top of my helmet via the GoPro vented helmet mount.
