Aaron Gwin's chainless World Cup win

Telemark Dave
Surprised no one here has posted this.  Aaron threw down an incredible ride to win at Leogang Austria, he broke his chain just out of the gate, but managed to still eek out the ride of the day.  Dudes the man.

This was real fun to watch. I never did any downhill MTB racing, though can appreciate it since I raced bikes since I was like 5 until a couple of years ago. I hope you guys enjoy this one.. http://www.mtb-downhill.net/aaron-gwin-wins-with-no-chain-leogang-uci-world-cup/

Pretty amazing riding but those announcers, sheesh. You would think the front fell off.
