’No Brakes, No Fear’ (2019) - RT Documentary

Did you know August 29 is the motorbike’s birthday? It was on this day that the world’s first internal combustion motorcycle was patented in 1885. These days, the vehicle is loved not only by riders but by sportsmen as well. For example, ice speedway, the popular motorcycle sport (and the most technically difficult), attracts hundreds of participants and thousands of viewers. In Russia, the competitions take place outdoors in temperatures below -20°C. Falls are practically unavoidable, but racers don’t fear the possibility of suffering a compression fracture of the spine. Watch ’No Brakes, No Fear’ (2019) to learn more about this extreme sport.
