Riding mt. Ymmitos on a Chilli

A POV video riding a local trail (first time for me) on mt. Ymmitos in Athens Greece. The trail starts almost at the top of the mountain and it finishes at the bottom. You can see the city of Athens from the start line, a view that I just can't have enough :)
Riding my Chilli, I try to follow my friend on his Commencal Supreme DH. The trail is very rocky and slippery (when we rode it). There is a big Rock Drop that we did not clear due to it being very slippery and huge, maybe next time...
The music in the video is a tribute to an '94 album called "All boro kings" from Dog eat dog, used to listen to that when I was 14...
The vid is quite long but I hope you won't be bored :)

I rode the Rwanda 50 Mile Fundraiser Ride in So CA last weekend. I opted for the 25 mile version and rode 29 miles and 3300 ft of climbing. Out of 950 riders I think I was the only one on a Knolly - representing mixed in a sea of lycra clad riders on carbon XC 29ers, hardtails, 650b, etc.

I saw a few walking their bikes and struggling in the mud on climbing some short, steep switch backs. My 33lb Chilli speced with 170mm fork and 50mm stem had NO issues trucking up, bombing down and hanging on the flats as long as my legs did their part :)

Nice! I entered the Tamarancho Dirt Classic in Fairfax and I have a feeling my buddy and I will be the only two on Knolly's.
