I received these pictures from an email, of course with no explanation. I did some research and found the source.

It's on Santa Cruz's site.

Well our poach of the cliffs started with a hangover and an early rise to
beat the mad rushes, the wind was definitely blowing the rain sideways at us
so we just had to knuckle down and ride the 6-inch wide edge of the cliff, I
don't know about Hans but I was pretty nervous at the start but soon found
my wheels and got a little more confident, maybe it was the 200meter drop to
the ocean below that was unnerving me a little. We found a little sheltered
spot from the wind and got some amazing riding shots. After the cliff edge
we moved onto a fun single track trail that followed the cliffs around to
Hags head. The light rain was now a down pour and we got drenched,

They'd like you to think it's a trail, but it's really not. These dudes were just messing around, and hiked their bikes out there, and rode back just for some pictures.

I can't believe I reposted this so soon after it was originally posted. :lame: Anyway, I thought those were cool pictures.
