The 2013 Red Bull Foxhunt took place between October 4 & October 6 and it saw 400 mountain bike enthusiasts being chased down a mountain by none other than Gee Atherton…
This video is an absolutely brilliant look at this year’s Red Bull Foxhunt and if it doesn’t have you itching to race down a treacherous mountainside on your bike then nothing will…
Here’s what the guys at Red Bull Ireland had to say on YouTube: “The weatherbeaten slopes of Slieve Martin, County Down, teem with hundreds of scarlet clad figures. 400 mountain bikers think they can outfox Gee Atherton in the 2013 Red Bull Foxhunt which turns the fear and ecstasy of a hunt in on itself, making prey of the hunters.
“From decorated pros to weekend warriors, the pack will tear down the three and a half miles of unforgiving downhill course encompassing wind bleached moorland, mud-spattered forests and hair-raising sprints, each adrenaline pumped biker tirelessly battling to cross the finish line before the advancing fox.”
It was certainly an adrenaline packed event and you can check out loads of great pics from the 2013 Red Bull Foxhunt over here. The video itself was ‘realised’ by the lads from Motherland who previously made this absolutely magnificent look at Dublin City from the perspective of it’s inhabitants. It’s worth the watch.
