When a helmet's just not going to help - Ireland cliff trails


Couldn't resist posting these pics of these mountain bikers near Dublin Ireland riding on these insane cliff trails.

There are times when you want to use safety equipment (ie like all the time when mountain biking) but then there are times (like in these photos) when even having all of the gear (helmets, elbow pads, etc) just seems a little useless.

Would be fun to hike along that trail. Apparently there are massive updrafts that regularly blow people off the trail just to add to the adventure of it all.

That's insane. I wonder if those mt. bikers think it's a little odd that everyone they pass on the trail is hiking instead of biking.
