Captain Jack's mountain bike trail

Captain Jacks trail in Colorado Springs, CO. Pretty awesome downhill section. This was my first time using a helmet cam, I did not have my helmet tight enough which caused some bouncing. Oh well, good trail.

Nice job. Thanks for the post.

How much of it was downhill? I'm guessing 99% as the video appears.

@lduff11Yeah probably around 90-95%. You can link up trails before this one in a section called Jones Park, my buddy and I tried it last week but there was about a foot of snow up top. You start around 10,300 feet and end up at about 6,800 if you link the trails right. It calls for about 3 hours of downhill. about 14-15 miles I believe. You can shuttle vehicles to eliminate climbing that on your bike

snow it tricky. ice is worse. as long as you have good balance and decent speed you can ride pretty well when its packed

I used a GoPro 960HD. I'm really happy with it, it shoots video 30fps at 960p.
