21 June @ 8:00 AM – 22 June @ 5:00 PM BST
Mini DH events specifically for ages 8-16 only . If your in the year of your 8th birthday upto 16 years and you want to try Downhill racing then this is for you!.
Our mini races are the ideal place to start your DH journey there are no older riders allowed at these events. Created to give the rider the space to gain confidence and racing knowledge in a freindly envioroment without the pressure of National level racing. The tracks are geared towards mini racing. They are push up based . We’ve even got the digger in at Llangollen in to build a new route up to make it easier.
Each day starts with a rider briefing to run through everything from bike setup to flag systems too where Mum and dad should or shouldn’t be on-track. This is for everyone is part of the day. The briefing on both days will be diffrent and you will learn more through out the year!
Riders will be informed of the track and any hazards or big features before riders are allowed up the hill. Our experianced race marshals will keep a watchful eye over the track and will allow more time for those that need to get upto speed. We aim to keep things fun and geared towards rider confidence, whilst doing so with the end of the day each rider getting 2 timed race runs just like they do at Nationals. Best run counts. Race podiums are at the end of each day just like being at a World cup so make sure your phone camera is ready!
