And, for obvious reasons, we have to agree. Around the legendary city of Cuzco alone, there are major mountain biking routes that can not be missed. Yuncaypata, Pumamarca Ruins, and the course of the world-famous race "Megavalanche", a very steep and technical downhill race which gathers riders from around the world. A few years ago, I had the pleasure -without knowing it at first- of traveling with a couple of riders from California, on the same flight down to Peru, and back to California, who were on their way to Megavalanche. As you can imagine, on the flight back I asked them a million questions about their experience in the race. All I heard about how thrilling and awesome it was, even though I could spot a few bumps, bruises and scratches along their arms, necks and faces!
