Pidcock's Tuna descent from my chest cam

[@gavinm717gkm]

The fact that you can just casually sit on the wheel of arguably the worlds best descender is absolutely bonkers.

[@Jay-nt2ew]

SAFA is probably one of the worlds best wdym lol

[@20yearsagotoday1]

Pretty sure there was nothing casual about it!

[@russm2008]

I don't think he's casually sitting on he peddling his but off

[@Secretlyanothername]

He knows this descent far better than Pidcock, which help

[@michael1]

Perhaps showing why the winning teams have riders who concentrate more on pedalling up them than rolling down - Ineos once upon a time albeit with a different name

[@ridesofjapan]

can never get enough angles of this run! that pedal strike is legendary!

[@titomon]

When I descend, I feel like this but at half the speed. 😂😂😂

[@paulbradford6475]

When I descend, I feel like this but at half your speed. 😉

[@zoltanandorko1596]

Top comment :D same here mate dont worry!

[@MisterRoG]

My heart rate just hit zone 3 while watching this! 😂😂 Safa ❤

[@madyogi6164]

Chill ride then. ;-) Should be six. :D

[@Jospeh-x6f]

Exactly 😂

[@xcg1234]

Nice, you got a workout, and he took the risk, win win

[@beefeekeefee]

Even though I knew it was coming that pedal strike still made my heart stop for a beat. Guy's a beast.

[@pompeymonkey3271]

I've seen this before too. The way he doesn't back off even an inch after taking what felt like several mm of his pedal is madness. I guess that's what you have to do at that level to win a race by descending better than everyone else!

[@Secretlyanothername]

1:10 for those wondering

[@harveybirdman593]

I don’t get it. Was it an accident ? Why would he do that

[@pompeymonkey3271]

@@harveybirdman593 Not deliberately lol! Once you know where the limits are, and you have the bike control, the limits are to be explored. Of course, if you go just a smidge too far, you're effed. That's just one of the reasons why he gets paid to ride his bike.

[@CanJmpToo]

The perception of speed with this camera angle is definitely intensified. Tom is a unique rider in terms of skills, low weight, low center of gravity, I'd assume that in general his lines might be difficult to replicate by bigger riders in twitchy descents - quite a show!

[@noahbirdrevolution]

How lucky and blessed... A gold medalist is to have the privilege of riding with Brian.

[@smfoley8]

People need to see this road in person to understand how insane this video actually is.

[@Blueski888]

Yes! I rode Tuna Canyon 4-5 times back in the ‘80s. It was two-way back then. Up and down it was ridiculous.

[@NoBrakes23]

I've driven it late at night, and saw more than one set of skidmarks going straight to the edge. Car, moto, or bicycle, you definitely have to be paying attention on Tuna.

[@claudeschweizer3932]

yassss. need more chestcam videos again

[@miguelcpt]

The skill is unbelievable

[@telapreta9795]

his cadence out of the corners is so fast! that I didn't notice on the other video, thanks for posting! keep the good work

[@74_Green]

1:08 Tom casually calls back "OIL" 😮 Wee man is bonkers :D

[@ConradGodfrey]

Just realised from this angle, I'm pretty sure it's not oil, but his right foot striking the ground?

[@DblocK813]

@@ConradGodfrey Def. a pedal strike

[@mixedmeter]

rock slide

[@bluemootang3239]

Shows that even the best of professionals can have small beginner mishaps. Happens to the best of us

[@Zahgil]

He nearly clipped the pedal comming out of the corner before clipping the right food. That would have been pretty bad sending him to the edge.

[@thomcerny1101]

Holy Sh*t @1:09!

[@jono1457-qd9ft]

It wasn't oil though. He grounded his pedal.

[@SloKenny]

Wow, was that a pedal strike!

[@David-z6q5h]

Savage two wheel application. Just add gravity and twisty asphalt. Brian and Tom, you two always possess bike stoke and you shrrrrreded that descent!!!

[@on2play736]

Did anyone's hands get a little clammy watching this? Man, it was nerve wracking but awesome at the same time. Wow!

[@kevinbuggie3808]

I bet Ineos management did

[@khchan8341]

Riders putting a lot of faith on the cleanliness of the road to take corners at those speeds 😅 crazy. Considering that the edge of the road has some dirt and a bit on the race line would be disastrous.

[@jordansimpson1384]

Incredible content. Kudos to you SAFA. This is an exhilarating watch.

[@Gixer750pilot]

Oh I was just thinking “he nearly had a peddle strike “ then he did ! He was so lucky

[@aaronricks6490]

I would have applied my brakes the entire ride🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣..I salute you guys..

[@SloKenny]

That left-hander at 1:55 was nuts!

[@oscarcer]

Tom's descent is superb and he doesn't know the turns by memory like a local could. So nothing diminishes the feat. But SAFA's lines are just better in multiple corners...

[@pcmjpcmj6854]

Majestic. Thank You

[@madyogi6164]

So nice. Great to see pro riders joining the fun.

[@renatogianmarco]

Pure class 👏 👌 pure speed 💯💣💥

[@icecoastbum]

Damn some of those turns...great control!!!

[@ride-time]

You can learn so much by watching how Pidcock adjusts his body position at various parts of the corner.

[@Agusisonline]

Great safe! Beautiful descent again!!

[@rodellandrews2523]

Man, my nerves are shattered

[@stanisawszymon1571]

this thing never gets boring...

[@AppleJack76]

History Lesson: Redbull once had a downhill race on Tuna. It was closed to spectators, but I was there. 😉

[@michael1]

Is there a difference with high protein fueling rather than the usual gel approach then?

[@irragrams]

We want the Tuna ascend version!

[@staypufft80]

it's a lot longer

[@michael1]

Need a different team for that these days

[@abolt8046]

[@edjack1993]

Not going to lie - that was terrifying.

[@nagasava8439]

So many turns with a mind of "I hope there is no car coming up"

[@MrMooooooose]

It's a one-way road

[@cuebj]

@@MrMooooooose Hah. Still need a car ahead to warn of any vehicles that ignore the one-way or don't know. Experience says, "Never assume one way will be one way"

[@Secretlyanothername]

Also, your 'following lines are impressive, to say the least!

[@pompeymonkey3271]

I've seen this film before. Or did he scrape his pedal again? Mental!

[@Bong17]

There’s two or three corners there that you had a better line than Pidcock, you could have gap him if you were at the front and he was following.

[@alexandermalyavin4030]

Смотреть уже страшно😮! 💪💪💪

[@kelsodelroy]

Pidcock looked like a motogp rider, the way he was pushing out that inside knee. Speaking of motogp, @SAFABrian you should hook up with ex motogp rider, cal crutchlow. He lives in Carlsbad and trains with Mark Cavendish, or even get josh Herrin in the oc to do some descents.

[@maxwellmcdowell3744]

That was hot !

[@twraven1]

Great camera angle. It’s like I’m on the road with you guys. Had you descended a practice run before this descent? If that was the first time down that’s quite a trick.

[@jonnybond8771]

Cue not breathing for 6 minutes and 11 seconds.
