that looks to have been filmed in the Oregon high desert. Some amazing roads out there. Icon is based in Portland, so the location is easily accessible. Many car commercials are shot on these roads as well.

 Sometimes the appropriate response to reality is to go insane.

Oh man!!! I want to get in that car and go play on that road track! I have not got to play like that since back in the '70s.

Obviously not real cop chase. you don't often see LEO in full face helmet as at 4:13 into clip. they all seemed to be talented though.

I received a catalog and other material from them with pictures and ads from this "ride". They staged it on the Maryhill Loops Road in central Washington. They used a RC helicopter for the aerial shots...looks like a great place to ride and great footage

Very cool video. The drifting thing is cool. It's very similar to what us poor boys used to do on gravel roads in the big ol $150 leadsleds that used to be plentiful when I was a kid. I backed several cars into corn fields when I was a kid without intending to. Including the first car I ever drove.

You sure? The web site has no white lines and has marker posts along the track. I think that's where the 2 bikes were filmed at the beginning of the video
