Sports / Fitness / Recreation | | English term or phrase: fast-burned descent | Comment from a mountain biking enthusiast:
The 90km descent from the Sierra Nevada mountains to the coast is one of my best ever riding trips—really challenging, both physically and technically, with fast-burned descents, rocky chutes and switchbacks |

| | rasante Talfahrt | Explanation:
"fast-burned" beschreibt wahrscheinlich die Geschwindigkeit der Abfahrt auf dieser steilen Strecke. Man nennt ja das schnelle Brennen einer CD oder DVD "fast burning"; in Anlehnung daran wurde wohl hier das "fast-burned" verwendet.
"Ein echter Mountainbiker verzichtet eben auch im Winter nicht auf ... einer rasanten Talfahrt, "

"Ich scheine zu den «anständigen Bikern» zu gehören, die nicht den engen Wanderweg direkt ab der Haldi-Bergstation für eine rasante Talfahrt missbrauchen."

| Grading comment Thanks. I also asked another English speaker who confirmed that fast burned just simply means very fast.
