Fantastic, I love watching great descending like that. The Sanchez's (Samuel and Luis Leon) are great to watch when they are in the mood to fly down a hill too. Luis Leon's descent of the Taneron in Paris-Nice a couple of year's ago was some of the best I've seen.

Awesome stuff, just a joy to watch.

He stopped again not long after to change another wheel....not because of a puncture but because it was blue and didn't match his bike. How cool is that. 8)

Blimey :shock: I was nearly sick watching this, how fast ???? Cool. I now see why these super fast descenders don't always make great climbers. With cojones that big they gotta be carryin a lotta extra weight :shock: :lol:

It's a lot easier to be as brave as that when you know there's nothing coming up the other way :o

Definitely. And Cancellara has a fair bit to contend with from the traffic going in the same direction - that white car in particular...
