Looks like a Super Moto CRF450R. Guy is lucky it didn't peg him and send him down the hill to!

Stupid Honda thought it was a deer! :D

Sad about the fatality.......and he'd crossed the finish line. On the other hand he completed his run. :thumbsup:

Cool race, but I grew up at the foot of Pikes Peak and it was a better event when it was dirt.

The Unsers owned that hill for many years, they were very popular.

Factory "works" teams from around the world sent some exotic stuff up there.

I had the opportunity to race a bike in the open class one year, and got smoked bad! .....it take guts to go fast up there.

I agree. Much better when dirt!
