The most spectacular road I've ridden | SCOTT Foil in Madeira

What an amazing strip of road to cycle down on a glorious summer morning. The new aero bike was put through it's paces on this bumpy, potholed road and handled superbly. It's great that I got to film this because while I could appreciate how stunning the views were at the time I had to stay pretty focused on holes and wet patches. And those tunnels... I could see as much as you can, scary!

[@olfrud]

my grandmother just died, and I bingewatch your videos because they are so beautiful, it makes it a little bit better.

[@ralphpaul7925]

I am so sorry to hear that. I wish you the best; it will get better with time.

[@laverdadtriunfa]

May the Lord give you peace in this hard time of you life.

[@clarisaktublove]

God loves you. RIP your grandma

[@kili7520]

Great shots! I´d love to see Safa descending together with Tom Pidcock!

[@fakesharky3497]

Fr hahaha

[@mikes1984]

hes too chicken cuz he knows he will get dropped

[@P4P5]

Add Mohorič as well

[@foldupaudi7645]

No way he would keep up with pidcock

[@Pauleuh]

@@foldupaudi7645 you might be surprised here.

[@ruiloureiro3167]

2:04 the sign says “dangerous road, risk of rock fall, use at your own risk”. This road was closed for about 3 years straight due to a huge landslide. It is indeed spectacular but very hard to maintain because of unstable rocks above. Along it you can see, in the distance, the clouds coming over the mountain range and sliding down the slope on this south side.

[@rizzlerforthergyatt]

Makes the decent even more gnarly ngl

[@alex_smallet]

Most roads in the mountains are like this. Do not ride in the rain or after the rain when landslide are most likely.

[@giodc8599]

I have never understood what you are supposed to do when seeing a falling rocks sign? Get the umbrella out? Not go through the road? Give no fucks?

[@djcald]

Yep, did this decend a few years ago when it was closed. Most scary thing I did on a bike!

[@gregvassilakos]

There is no way I would have been able to jump that grating at 5:54. There is no doubt that I would have stuck the front wheel in it, somersaulted, and landed on my head. I've done it before.

[@liquidSpin]

That was intense! I'm pretty sure my front wheel would have gotten caught up and I would have went OTB haha SAFA is BEAST

[@ye3100]

Facts straight facts

[@MNattorn]

I’d die. How come he jump over it like nothing?

[@nicosf100]

you should practice, it's fun

[@liquidSpin]

@@nicosf100 show us a video of you doing it first 😃

[@Noop-Noop56]

This was one of my favorite disciple videos and imo one of the best ever. Stellar ride safa. Proper road shred!!!

[@_BoomShakalaka_]

That was a delightful descent. Thanks so much for sharing

[@yijuntey]

Wow this is spectacular, a view that most of us can only dream of

[@danvers34]

Watching this was insane, Can't imagine what it would be if it was in the real deal. Great work SAFA!

[@Gk9311]

truly breathtaking view

[@Jarek.]

Amazing views (very often in your videos...) and insane skills (as always 🤣). Stay safe, Safa!

[@beanybelly5534]

Speed almost 70 km/h down the hill and you still have the courage warning the pothole. I love you Safa.

[@Edwinowens7]

I can't describe the amount of good feelings that I received from this video.

[@gameconsumer2517]

Love it safa! Be safe & stay fast!

[@ZaneGan]

another beautiful video Brian thank you so much !! the tunnel segments were scary! As if i was trying to help you see whats ahead !

[@iamthepkmaster]

Great to see Scott's official endorsements in the videos! Great things for the channel.

[@andredubois4601]

5:54 that reflex

[@gregvassilakos]

That grating looks as though it was intentionally designed to kill cyclists.

[@emal1994]

Another awesome ride!!! Spectacular views.

[@portcorner_noise]

Been to Madeira in 2021... was talking to my wife about going again soon, I just love it so much. Great ride mate!

[@BT9323]

🇵🇹Thank you Safa for the amazing pictures of our Island, amazing to see you coming down, thank you 🙏

[@ericbarbosatravels1391]

Hopefully he goes to Azores next, they have some nice decents down from the Mountians..

[@joaolemos4318]

Yes , but Madeira its Madeira My friend 👌🏼😎

[@george.r]

[@Highnoonshred]

Thanks for another sweeet video! I am in Burke, VT for the week and the gravel and trails make me want to see you out here blazing through! Cheers! BK

[@slikerfy_182]

Damn, dis is insane !! Gimme more roadbike vids like dis bruh

[@stygwygyr]

Bunny hopping that grating at 5:54 cruising over 50kph is MAD MAD skill. This dude got some tungsten balls!

[@vinayakahegde2426]

Breathtaking!

[@KrainaYarpenna]

Deeply mesmerizing!

[@CycoWarriorx]

When you’re riding soooooo fast, you go thru two different weather patterns… 😂😂😂😂 #BadAssMan 🍻

[@timothyskattum950]

Magical once again Safa!

[@damianvears4149]

You need to film the second half then to the sea. Rode to the top then back to the sea in 2019. Most epic place ever. Thanks for footage bro.

[@mariovieiraronaldo493]

I did see you, you went past my house

[@jasonjacob402]

[@Roxas99Yami]

Hey Safa long time fan here. Really like your new bike, wheels are nice. I was thinking of doing the Limni Dam downhill in Greece in few days. Tho i just goPro it, cannot be bothered with production quality haha

[@miguelbartelle6911]

Out of the mist! ☁️👍

[@ig29]

Have to say that the guy that is filming is a skilled rider also 💪👍

[@haitrinh4450]

Good time for relaxing SAFA

[@A.dream_of-roads]

Thank you

[@pedroromao261]

Welcome to Portugal!

Portugal FTW! You can find tons of great roads with great sights for cycling in Portugal.

[@TheLOLOLOL324]

Any recommendations?

@@TheLOLOLOL324 yes. You have great ones in Serra da Estrela, in Serra da Lousã, the N2 road, the N222 road and many others

[@TheLOLOLOL324]

@ Thank you very much, I'll look into those :). Serra da estrela looks spectacular!

@@TheLOLOLOL324 I almost forgot. You have Serra da Arrábida that has amazing roads too, with sights over the sea!

[@TheLOLOLOL324]

I love this one yes, very nice climb with very few cars. Some of the most beautiful beaches there too! I really like Rua dos Capuchos off Estrada da Serra - any other good ones in sintra/cascais area?@

[@fire4bull]

Jees, man your videos are so beautiful

[@pookienumnums]

I prayed for speed and my prayers were answered. By this video.

[@trademark1874]

This is why i love silent hubs ;)

[@hectormtbpr2892]

Epic!

[@maxlein1246]

Can confirm that. The green of the shrubs, trees and plants in the mountains is completely unreal. It looks as if someone cranked up the saturation knob to 11.

[@MaximeCJ]

This is sooo wild

[@adip6476]

I am jealous, I am really jealous. I want to ride this road!

[@ig29]

Come to Madeira and bring your bike!! Everybody is welcome!! 🚲💪

[@WalkingRabbit]

Great!

[@neelsahay5227]

crazy how much faster it looks when the camera is just a little bit lower.

[@Ih8GoogleandApple]

I always thought Latigo descent in Malibu was pretty epic!

[@jonnythelegs2597]

Wawa we wa, is nice 👊

[@taikojin4774]

Nice view

[@acapulkomexico5324]

Чётко!!красавчики пацаны!

[@alimorteza2460]

i love you safa ❤️

[@AJTno4]

this. is. SAFA!

[@trumanhung]

I did the same ride there in May. It is truly spectacular. But riding through those tunnels are scary af

[@SAFABrian]

Most def, very dark in thsoe tunnels

[@distancespl]

The 5:55 bunny hop over the grate was a puckering point for me.

[@bandguy360]

I love the raw footy

[@chrisshaw380]

Epic

[@jepeeemeeena2147]

6:16 just... perfect...

[@ujujuju8845]

[@amineroadbikerider1504]

I would love to watch a serie called : safa with a pro 😍 where you descend together

[@Kaisersozze]

Is the microphone directly on the rear hub? Pretty amazing road.

[@pepegomez4525]

Quiero que sigas el desierto de los leones por el camino de las piedras . Eres fanfarrón en bajada.

[@abiymael]

Tomando café vendo esse vídeo incrível. Qual nome desse lugar? Onde filmaram

[@anoop3525]

you should cme to india, at the lower tip of india theres a popular island called rameshwaram, it would be really cool if u rode by the indian ocean and on an amazing bridge called pamban which connects the island to indian territory, sri lanka is only 15 kms away

[@cpp410]

Very nice shor! do you have plan upload the AR video to Rouvy?

[@KOHCTPYKTOP_37]

Прикольно, зайцы бегают👍👍👍

[@jambrayl1300]

I'm always curious if they scout the road first with a car before descending at this crazy speed. holy

[@pr6229]

Excellent shots . Could you see the road surface in the tunnels.

[@SAFABrian]

No. Scary.

[@jasontgerhart]

That's exactly what i was thinking! Send it!!!

[@ruiloureiro3167]

You can’t, even with a front light, because your eyes don’t have time to adapt to the sudden light difference. Turns out that, until about a year ago, one of those tunnels had big holes (like, at least 5 cm deep). Also, a bit ahead of the spot where Brian started there’s a sign saying “dangerous road, risk of rock fall, use at your own risk” 😬. I rode the same road about 3 weeks ago

[@DoNuT_1985]

What camera mount are you using, because your descending videos look so awesome and mine do not. Oh wait, you have a riding buddy .... *walksawayshamefully*

[@balashovg]

Insane view. Can anybody tell which camera is it shooted on?

[@samsungtab1049]

Imagine going down this yourself
