Starts at 8m 20s if you want to avoid the fluff. But it does show you how tight the margins are re bike width vs the track.

This is the future of sports like this... Incredible sense of speed.

Way more impressed with the tech guys/drone pilot than the rider tbh

Would also make fantastic viewing on something like le tour in the mountains, given they're hitting 60+ mph.

Was good for the minute or so they filmed in the womens Elite CX race last year until the UCI put their oar in and said not again!

Again... Fantastic sense of just how fast the pros are travelling. You simply don't get that from a motorbike or static cam.

Just spotted where this was, heading to Chile next week and have Valparaiso on my list of places to go, so will try to keep an eye out for some of that route to get a real sense of the insanity of these guys.
