He was Specialized!

With Sam Hills premature evacuation from the folks of Morgan Hill, Ca. i.e. Specialized, they put out a flattering tribute to Sam on his departure from the company. Enjoy.

Is Sam Hill the new “Duke Nukem”?

It hasn’t exactly been the best kept secret on the planet but it is now official, Sam Hill has signed for the biggest UK Downhill Team for 2013. Nukeproof, a brand-name synonymous with the inception of mountain biking, was brought back to life recently by Chain Reaction Cycles. The brand offers great value for money and an ethos for racing that few others can match. We wish them the best of luck in 2013…podiums await we think or can we [...]

Innerleithen MTB’s Mini DH Rd3

Innerleithen MTB’s Mini DH Rd3

Sunday saw the last round in the 3 round race series for kids aged 10 – 18 yrs old. Run by Innerleithen MTB it’s the only race series in the UK that’s aimed at introducing the young riders to racing, It’s done the old school way with a push-up and the tracks are still challenging enough for better riders to enjoy but not too hard for the beginners. The track used today was 2/3rds of the track used for the [...]

North East Champs – Kielder

North East Champs – Kielder

NDH added Kielder to their list of venues throughout the north east where they had been building new technical tracks for the past 5 years. Kielder was always their target because Deadwater fell is a massive hill more than capabable of holding a 5 minute plus course. Work on this started earlier this year by a dedicated small crew with a few other helpers. Having worked on this hill myself I was more than a little excited about the potential. [...]

SDA RD4 Dunkeld

The Scottish Downhill circus headed to Dunkeld for the 4th round of the SDA. Now at the start of the year, if you had come to me and said Dunkeld race will be held on the 12th of August, I would have said, no way hoosay!!! You see, the forestry commission have been doing major work in the area, and the whole bottom section of the track looked like a bombsite, with hardly any tree cover it used to be [...]

2012 Scottish Champs Ft. William

Fort William has got to be the best venue to hold the Scottish Champs, a real test of skill and stamina on one of the finest tracks in the world. Not much you can say about the track apart from the new section created for the world cup. It looked really good and solid due to the exceptionally dry weather that the west coast has been getting, not like the biblical downpours us lot down in the central belt and [...]
