Taniwha Trail, Rotorua, New Zealand

Dave Hamilton aka the Fatman, a local copper and president of Descend Mountain Biking woofs down a burger at The Pig & Whistle then proceeds to make Chris Southwood and Mick Ross look like beginners on road bikes, as he lights up the greasy and steep downhill track in Rotorua, New Zealand. Holy moly he is fast!

The pub used to be the police station in Rotorua, hence the name.

Nice camera work. How did you get the color to look so good? Messing with white balance/exposure compensation?

[@respectablebogan3276]

Sick skills anyone know the DH rider's name??

[@maxibuck098]

Hey Guys!
I'm an exchange student from Germany and a passionate mountainbiker!
Can somebody recommend where to rent a bike in Rotorua?
Or even better is maybe anybody out there, who would like to show a few trails to me?
Cheers,
Max
