Slighty mad choice of route, but a helmet still makes sense.

There is still the rock face to fall against, that and falling stones to protect against.

But freeriding is a bit extreme at times.

Its somewhere up the northend of Scotland the pictures were in one of the tabloids might have been the Daily Record, up here at the start of the year....

The riders are Hans Rey and Steve Peat. Steve is the current World Champion Downhill rider and he's a Brit!

The pics were taken in Ireland - The cliffs of Moher.

Have a look at http://www.hansrey.com/ for the full story.
