José Hermida Cape Epic FLOW

What's amazing is those are the race leaders he passes.

No matter what discipline you ride how inspiring to see how smooth he descends.

Impressive, almost like he was motorized compared to the others.

Impressive, almost like he was motorized compared to the others.

That was awesome- Susi is a pretty good technical rider but Hermida killed it...

[Gattonero]

Ridiculously faster than the others, like if he was rolling on smooth terrain

[simple]

He is pumping and using the terrain rather than just being stiff and recovering on the downhill.

Cool how they were able to film the downhill like that.

Great video!

Not to take away from his brilliant decent, is he that much faster then the others or were they purposely getting rest as part of a stage race?

Speaking as his mechanic it's an excellence and talent that has rubbed off from me.

Then I need you to come over visit a while...I am sure he can manage without you for 2 weeks.

I'll escape from the team after Windham and come your way.......lol

Ceramic bearings...

Not using ceramic bearings, he just knows how to flow, find a line and has loadsa talent n excellence.

I spoke to Jose today and asked him about that downhill ( I wasn't in Africa as my wife was about to give birth) as a few people spoke to me about it yesterday. He said that he in fact had a really bad line as the other riders had taken the best route. The reason he flowed so well was down to his setup and the way he let the fork and shock do all the work which you can see in the film, one of his favourite parts of the race.
