Video: Cyclist whizzes past motorbikers on descent ... and one of them isn't happy

Even if you haven’t ridden a long, snaking descent, you’ll know from watching the Tour de France and other races on TV that nothing is quicker going down one than a decent rider on a bicycle – remember Vincenzo Nibali’s winning attack in Il Lombardia last year when he zoomed past a couple of motos?

This video from Colombia shows the awkward moment when a pair of motorcyclists out on their bikes on a road near the capital Bogota were overtaken by a cyclist who’s clearly nailed his descending skills.

The biker in front is having none of it, though and gets back in front of the cyclist – not with the intention of giving him a tow, by the look of it – with the rider sensibly dropping back and expresses frustration to the other motorcyclist about his friend’s actions.

Of course, we couldn't mention a descent in South America without flagging up one of our all-time favourite videos - the Brazilian rider who drafted a lorry ... at 124kph.

Back to Europe, and here’s Nibali’s descent to win the autumn Monument last year.
