We are at the sanctuary of Señor Monserrat, it is a very religious and spiritual place.
In order to get up here to the sanctuary you need to climb up 2300 meters.
From Bogota up to here it is 3157 meters above sea level.
The faith here seems almost palpable.
My name is Mauricio Estrada, I am Colombian from Bogota
and I have been taking part in Downhill for about thirteen years and I am twenty nine years old.
During the physical part, there is an uphill that we have to battle for 150 meters.
We also have to note that we are between 3060 and 3100 meters above sea level, that makes it even tougher.
The curves are very tight and the bicycles very long. Because of this the maneuvers get really tough.
And that’s where technique will make the difference.
We know that in the past Red Bull has created races through stairs, but never this long.
We think that the length is about 2.2 Kilometers or maybe 2.4 Kilometers, something like that.
This record will be in the Guinness world Records Book.
The track was truly hard, it required a lot of physical preparation, I would say you would have to be a super athlete.
There are few more complicated trails or demanding tracks.
The track is pretty difficult, everything is tough.
