    I'll bet you're super stoked to get that new Intense! Perhaps you can read all of the posts below before you take it out on the trail.

    EDIT:
    I had the sound off when I viewed, and missed the part people are complaining about. Evidently you documented less-than-acceptable trail etiquette. Remember, what you do on the trail gets generalized to ALL mountain bikers.

    Who were you calling moron? Up hill traffic has the right of way. You're suppose to get out of their way but insted you came barreling through like you own the trail so I hope you were referring to yourself for not getting out of their way.

    Nothing like like filming yourself acting like a douchebag and then sharing it with the world.....thinking it was perfectly acceptable behavior. Bravo.

    You went down the wrong trail. Thanks for showing us how it's done on the P-line. Dick.

    Worst part was, wasnt even a blind corner (not that that would be ok either) but iF you were paying attention you apparently saw them with enough time to slow down and not run them off the trail; whether you know climbers have right of way or not, its just common courtesy.

    Question for everyone: I've never been to Santiago and was planning to go once the trails are dry. Are the trails marked with one way signs so I would know what trail is for going up and what one is for going down. I'd hate to be that d!ckhead going down a climbing trail just because I did not know. :?:
