Tom Pidcock recorded speeds of up to 95kph descending down the Rossfeld Panorama mountain pass on the Austria-Germany border.
In a new video shared by Red Bull, which sponsors the double Olympic mountain bike champion, Pidcock is followed on the 6km road by Matthias Walker, a Dakar Rally champion, who films from a motorbike.
Pidcock adopts the supertuck position with his body onto the top tube of his bike to gain an aero advantage. In 2021, the UCI banned the position in races, but it can still be used outside of competition.
But the 25-year-old Brit still pushed on the pedals during his ride. Riding out of the saddle, he produced over 800 watts.

At the end of the descent, Walkner claps the Pidcock’s descent before towing the Q.365 rider back up the mountain road.
Pidcock is famous for his descending ability. During his Tour de France debut in 2022, when he won a stage on Alpe D’Huez, Pidcock descended down the Col du Galibier and Col de la Croix de Fer , hitting over 100kph.
In 2023, Pidcock also appeared in a video by Safa Brian, descending Tuna Canyon in Los Angeles. The viral video has now clocked up over 2.7 million views.
