Of course I can’t beat Jackson’s Winning time. It’s a fun title for sure to use But Damn what a fun experience to see the track again In person and I have a massive appreciation for what these WC racers do. Jackson’s run was insane and very impressive for sure. Make sure you drop a like and comment below and subscribe for more!

Hello YouTube Welcome Back to another video we are at a very special location right now we’re in mon sentan uh right behind me is the original old start ramp which is like a big whale tail um that is what I dropped in on for a few years
Racing the World Cup and then racing the world championships in 2010 so it’s a pretty special place brings back some uh good memories but also some bad ones literally where my finger is pointing down there round the side of the Hut is where the World Championships went and that is where I
Bent my pedal pedal at the start of my race run caught my pedal on like a rock and it twisted and bent everything so I did the whole of my world championships race run with pretty much not being able to Pedal my foot was at a super weird
Angle so thinking about it it was like a big annoying time in my career at that point because I think it pretty much messed up my chance at winning a world championship but these things happen that’s part of racing that’s um the special thing about World Championships is you only get
Pretty much One race run and it counts so it’s cool to come back and just kind of see everything again the track has changed a little bit since I raced last year even since last year’s race the track has changed a ton there’s still some original bits uh that I will
Recognize but we’re not on downhill bikes this time we’re on uro bikes which is going to be pretty sketchy here so I think I know where I’m going uh we’ll see how we get on and I’ll try and talk through it as we’re riding but I don’t think it’s a popular thing that
Uro bikes come to ride the World Cup track in mon sentan um so it’s going to be spicy and interesting for sure um so yeah let’s see what the track is like drop a like on the video and as the video goes on comment throughout let’s go ready Sandy TR we also kindly
Got a lift up to the top because as you can see the gondola is not running because it is out of season and uh yeah we got a nice lift up to the top because pedaling up here would take hours probably yeah I’m going to beat Jackson’s
Time so we’re in and the winner of this World Cup was Jackson Goldstone woo this year as you can see the track has seen better days and we’re uh we’re just riding it woo so this was all kind of new I think some of it I raced uh in the world Champs but
Well super rough I think I’m up it’s crazy to like it does nothing when you watch on footage it looks like flat and not that Rocky who that is pretty rough super fast here nice w i remember doing this in the world championships doubling into this okay do a different
Line over the rock here going right yeah this is the new bit that they used for the World Cup this year giving Sandy a bit of a gap into the original I race this B this little climb left it’s crazy riding it and watching the guys
TV wo um just how fast they really go this is cool that’s nice wo W jeez oh it’s kind of nice but can smell the brakes and I SL Before the Race and this section here was a nice lurmer yeah like all flat and now it’s like ruts which makes it kind of
Easier cuz you’ve got support when you watch the GoPros and the race runs of the guys it’s crazy you’re like you’re skipping over that that fast okay they were dropping off that which is bizarre it’s not good to do it on an Ural bike they were going like high on
The routs up there this is our first run so bear with us oh that Rock’s close traversing across going high on the routs wow this is steep and then Jackson was like gapping from here down into the BM sore a lot of the guys but they ride this stuff like there’s
Nothing on the ground apart from a smooth tarmac Road slide in here they we’re going to wide getting a better exit here righty this is going to be cool dropping into this it’s been quite some years this is gnarly Stevie’s drop nice oh these rocks are
Gnarly giving a little bit of a gap for Sandy super fast speed tuck going inside yo whoa this Ro Garden is gnarly no idea where I’m going holy smokes the rocks and the leaves are so slick can’t see underneath oh that’s full h Huh I didn’t know where we were going we
Were going just anywhere I went like way too far left on top there yeah before crossing over top section was good oh yeah that was that was deat yeah that was hard you think we beat World Cup fastest uh speed trap yeah felt like it right over like it’s tarmac Road I’m
Going to have to try yeah this is the right place all right what’s the next bet couple different lines of guys were sneaking here and they were gapping from here to here is pretty crazy woo that’s being closed off and into the Finish Line sick we
Survived that was nice what a track Matt it’s crazy huh yeah so we survived MSA World Cup track super gnarly really cool to come back and check it out and tackle on the Enduro bike although I do not recommend that it’s a little bit too much
Um but yeah like the World Cup has been around here for the longest time and it will continue to come back so um yeah what a what a run very slow at some point so excuse that but I hope you enjoyed this one drop a like on the
Video let me know where I should go next what track I should write out next what World Cup track you’d like to see me ride I’d like to come back here and spend like few runs on it getting used to it but uh time is off the Ence we are
Pushed for time anyway but what a run um make sure you give the video a like and uh comment below subscribe to the channel if you have not already and yeah see you in the next video thanks for watching

Hi I am a big fan
On a downhill bike I’d say within half second
Top Video. Always outstanding. Cheers. Stoozer. 🤠
Awesome idea, enjoyed that- would be good to see you hit a few more, particularly if you’re able to run the full track like you do on this.
Beautiful autumnal ride. Loved the colors. Track seems destroyed and you don't see holes and gaps that much because of the leaves
Slow😂😂😂 you should see me walk down the trails!!! 👍🤙 great vid!
Close! Lol
Wow, it's like a post-apocolyptic ghost town after the WC. Great vid Lewis 🎉
When was the last time u raced?
Mudpits are definitely there to slow you down, bunch of aholes.
Glad you don't let the bad juju of the past get to your head 😂
Awesome Lewis…..I so would try it on an Enduro bike tbh……recommended or not 🤘🤘😁😁
super
I know it’s a bit left field from your usual, but what about pencilling in Madeira next year?
Another track to add to the to do list 😂
mate when are we gonna see you with an atherton bikes? =)
I would love to see you, riding the Green Hill Bikepark in Germany 🫶
👍
Great video, loved the commentary it added a riding touch to the viewing
Hi lew, nice vid and what camera you using?
what would you reccomend me to buy a downhill or enduro if my bike park has no uplift?
Great.you should do more DH lewis.ATB
Yoo Lewis the rock gardens there just look gnarly and insane let alone the boys gapping it through there in the WC
Up the enduro on the dh track love it ⛳
Fantastic video! This was good!
Why dose your helmet say only fans😖😂
when do u go back home?
You should ride the snowshoe World Cup track.
Now beat Loic Bruni’s qualifying run
This is sick. Really does put the world cup level in perspective, the speed is absolutely insane.
it's so nuts how crazy it is in reality. Really puts it into perspective.
I’d like to see you do the new Whistler DH.
Do them all lewis
This Track is so Crazy and Jackson Goldstone Fly….That was a Run…
A great video once again and i love how your making them good and i dont get bored half way through and your uploading so many videos i check up on the channel everyday keep the amazing work up dude 😊❤❤
Would love to see you in bad wildbad germany on the downhill track
Using Jackson’s name for clickbait. Pathetic
You were going really fast! And people, dont forget that for the race, theyve clean the trail…now full of leaves is not the same game, you dont see nothing, really dangerous!
Great stuff Lewis. How about Bromont if it still exists? Long time ago but i remember it had at least one savage rock garden!
Those bikes are silent
Great content as always! I’ve been watching your content since the BMC Trailfox days as I had one at the time. I’m very curious what a rider as skilled as yourself feels about the different rear suspension designs. Specifically, how you find the differences between the high pivot/idler design vs the more conventional Horst link 4 bar like your new Canyon. As an independent, it could make for some interesting content. Thanks for the inspiring riding!
Great footage! Are you using a GoPro12 or an Insta 360 camera?
