Our island's (or rather, Chile's) biggest and most insane bike race is known as the Valparaiso Cerro Abajo, or VCA. Picture ginormous jumps, slender streets, colored walls, crazy cobblestone, screaming spectators, staggeringly steep stairs, perros locos, and utterly distracting street art... see the video below via Saturdays for all of this and more (and note the rider's outfit--classy). Perro perro!
