POV: Kilian Bron’s Winning Run At The Mountain Of Hell MTB Race

When it comes to finding the gnarliest mountain bike race in the world, you’re thoughts might go to World Cup DH racing, or maybe something like Red Bull Hardline. Sure, those are technical and scary, but how about combining the steepest, scariest parts of those races with a full-on high mountain adventure that includes starting on a glacier and descending nearly 8000 vertical feet through ancient hiking paths in the French Alps. Oh yeah, and it’s a mass start race, meaning you’re racing alongside nearly 1000 other riders simultaneously. If you’re wondering what that’s like, take a peek at Kilian Bron’s POV from this year’s Mountain of Hell Race – his winning time was just shy of 30 minutes.
