[full movie] THE PEAK - Sugar Loaf by MTB (Queyras, Agnel pass)

You won't believe it when I tell you that it was supposed to be a training day... We had just arrived in Queyras. I didn't know this northern sector at all and we decided to do a "pleasure ride" day with a famous enduro route, which started from the Agnel pass. But when we arrive at the pass, we see this breathtaking peak standing out against the horizon... The Sugar Loaf Mountain. Such a beautiful peak is rare. It looks like a mini Matterhorn... Despite its 3208 meters, it only overlooks the pass by 500 meters. So, with Dimitri and Bertrand, we decide to take a little detour and go see with our bikes if a line is possible. To be honest, I didn't really believe it. But in fact, the higher we went, the more it seemed possible.
This is how we rode almost the entire face (except about ten meters after the crossing under the slab). Then, we resumed our enduro route, as if nothing had happened. It was only once at home, looking at the drone images, that I thought: “but this is crazy!”. And you will notice: even with the GoPro, the impression of slope is striking, which is very rare.
Hang in there and enjoy watching!
