Richie Rude drives a 911!

Good to see some of the younger guys appreciate a classic car.
Btw a great edit for those fellow mountain bikers out there.

DH biking and Porsche, my two passions!

Saw the video earlier. Amazing what they are doing with FPV drones these days!

Sorry to correct you on this: it's actually Enduro
Both are fun though.

Haha, yeah, sorry. I use the term loosely, but its riding down hills, which is the fun part I´ve gotten to old for DH racing, so I´ve joined a few Enduro-races lately. Suits me better, more laid back and social. Pic. proof from a local race:

Need a bikerack for my 911

Same here, Enduro is the go now. The best thing is that my daughter is coming with me.

With all the gear and tools unfortunately the 911 has to stay at home when we go racing.

One of my buddies just broke his neck in a couple of places, doing this, at a ski area near Golden BC. He survived, but it will be a while before the permanent neurological outcome is clear.

I just broke my neck on my MTB a few weeks ago. Apparently it’s not that uncommon. I blame my height and lack of skill more than the activity but something to think about. Luckily I didn’t need surgery and I should fully recover after wearing this stupid neck brace for 3 months.

We have some noted BMXer’s who come out to the hill country rally in their air cooled 911’s. Nice guys.

SeaSucker bike racks work a treat! Room for front wheel in the frunk, along with helmet and protective gear.
