  • I spent a couple of days riding MTB in Verbier bike park - Switzerland. This downhill bike park is super steep and technical thanks to Ludo May for showing me the secret trails for us to shred on our enduro bikes. This was honestly the best MTB trail I've ever ridden, especially in Europe. The Swiss alps are amazing for mountain bike riding.
