Ronan 2nd Fastest Junior in Pila
Ronan Last Jump Pila
I headed to Pila, Italy last Wednesday for the penultimate round of the IXS Cup series. After arriving in nearby town Aosta that night, me and dad explored the area in the car which ended up with us up the road near Pila way above the town of Aosta. Luckily this meant that I got to do a 20 minute long dh ride at 8 o’clock at night as there is a wicked dh track from Pila to Aosta which is (more…)

Highline Racing Podium Double at Ae Forest
The 4th round of Scottish Downhill Series was definitely a successful one for Highline Racing. James smashed it in his second run to claim 3rd in Senior on track where i’m sure his strong pedalling power would have helped him. Ronan also went faster in his 2nd run to grab 3rd place in Junior which he was happy with as he didn’t have any crashes all weekend and said, “It felt good to podium on a track where I haven’t been top 3 before”. It was an awesome weekend of racing as the times were extremely close. To do well you had to have very few mistakes and try hard the whole way down the course. (more…)

The trip started out with the long drive out to Leogang, Austria with World Cup racer Fergus Lamb and photographer Stephen Hughes. Ferg was racing the World Cup that weekend so i thought it would be good to do some riding out there before racing the IXS Cup in Leogang the next weekend. As i don’t have the points needed to race the World Cups I just rode some of the other dh trails while the WC was on, as well as a few xc rides with Liam Moynihan and Hannah Barnes (Cheers to Joe Barnes for lending me his xc bike).

Tom’s Adventure – Report 2
More time spent in Whistler and a couple of videos. First up is a nice cruise down A-Line into Canadian Open lower. A nice way to finish the day and make some friends jealous
More Mountain Biking Videos >>
Secondly I have an edit of some footage from the track D1. This its a short track which is nearly all covered in this video. Its classed as a double black pro line on the trail map but is infact a nice flowy jumpy trail and the high difficulty rating keeps a lot of people off so it doesn’t get too blown out or busy.
