I'm sure there are some steps or sidewalks in your city you've walked thinking; "it would be so cool to tear that up on a dirt bike." Here's what it's like to live out that fantasy, in an "off-road race" that looks like a James Bond chase scene.

You're riding here on the helmet of enduro racer Andreas Lettenbichler at the Red Bull "Enduro Extreme XL." It's a "steeple-chase" style urban off-road race that sends bikes all over Lagares, Portugal, on "trails" that motorized vehicles have no business being on.
