The Valparaiso Cerro Abajo bike race in Valparaiso, Chile is an urban downhill course that winds through the cramped streets of Chile’s cultural metropolis. On its eighth year, this race draws contestants from all over the world and is held during the winter months when it’s often too cold for many North Americans to ride back home. The last VCA was just held this past February and Filip Polc won it for the second year in a row. These races have become pretty popular and I can see why. Check out how crazy this course is!
