Red Bull "Tour of the Dragon"

Touted as the world’s toughest one-day mountain-bike race, the Tour of the Dragon requires riders to scale over 15,000 feet of altitude in the Eastern Himalayan Kingdom of Bhutan. Justin filmed and photographed the entire race for Red Bull’s Red Bulletin Magazine, dodging mud, cows, cars, waterfalls, landslides, and extreme drops to the valley below. See below for the finished film, and what it took to make it in the accompanying behind-the-scenes documentary.
