MTB News: It is not without reason that the Red Bull Monserrate Cerro Abajo in the Colombian capital of Bogotá is one of the most spectacular mountain bike events. The track with 1.000 steps (!) has a length of 2,4 kilometers and starts from the 3.125 meter high Cerro Monserrate. The Czech Ghost rider Tomáš Slavík has been the new champion of the world's longest urban downhill race since Saturday.
After his serious injury in 2019, the exceptional Czech talent Tomáš Slavík celebrates a big comeback with his victory at the Monserrate Cerro Abajo. The Ghost driver needed an unbeatable time of 2,4:3.125 minutes for his 4 kilometer run from the 42 meter high Cerro Monserrate. Tomáš Slavík is also the first champion to win two “Cerro Abajo” events: Red Bull “Monserrate Cerro Abajo” and “Valparaíso Cerro Abajo”. He already celebrated his first victory in Cerro Abajo in 2018.
