Pikes Peak is the second oldest motorsport race in the USA. Staged in Colorado, the race takes just under 10 minutes to complete, but it's notorious for demanding high skill levels if you're going to win. It's a motorbike race like no other. Sometimes there are animals on the road, sometimes lightning at the start line and sometimes hail (冰雹)at the finish. On a 20- kilometer public road comprised of 156 turns, competitors climb from the 2,862-meter start line to the 4,302-meter finishing line at the mountain's summit.
