EPIC fixed gear bike race in downtown Auckland City, NZ

Red Bull Eye in the Sky was a fixed gear, track bike race around Auckland City, New Zealand.
 There were 5 checkpoints around the city and riders had to collect a token at each checkpoint.
 If a rider was running with a brake they had to visit a 6th checkpoint.

If you think these guys weren’t hauling enough ass, skip to 6:40. What?!

Rainier Schaefer took 1st place with a time of 19.22min. And he hauled ass.
