This is a sublimely beautiful video of some sublime riders in a sublime setting. As a Canadian, I’ve always thought we and Norwegians were separated at birth, what with our long winters, love of cross country skiing, northern lights, and fjords. But, if we were, Norway is definitely the big brother. With darker winters, deeper fjords and, dare I say it, maybe even more beautiful scenery.

This is my favourite sort of mountain bike video. The riding has real flow. It’s not outrageous. There’s a bit of air but they aren’t going all Red Bull Rampage on us—or the stunning natural environment for that matter. This is reverent riding of the highest order.
