Clip of riders going up Cougar Rock during this year's Tevis Cup (100 mile in a day endurance ride in California). The clip gets more and more scary towards the end. This sort of riding is not for the fainthearted

There was an alternative route but it added several km - I think the one that turned round twice, must have taken the longer option
 
Looks fun until you see them come uptowards the camera and you see the drop! Also suprises me how many people too it at speed and that the horses are sound lol.
 
omg i can't belive the amount of people not wearing hats death wish lol i haven't got the guts to do anything like that i would be whining about my horse breaking its legs
