You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
Much like how the Trials round of the Classic Weekender sounds a lot more daunting than it really is, so too it can be with the Downhill course. But there’s nothing to scared of. Having said that, good riders will have a blast!
This year we’re not going to give too much away about the exact location of Downhill course as we don’t want people pre-riding it as it needs a bit of work at the mo. Suffice to say it’s going to be of a similar style to last year’s course, with lots of line options throughout (faster but harder lines and easier but slower lines basically).
Riders of all abilities will be able to get from the start gate to the finish line without getting off. Skilled riders will be rewarded by taking the trickier lines. Less confident riders won’t be crashing or carrying their bikes down anything. All riders will have fun.
To give you an idea of the type of stuff that the Downhill will involve check out the videos on the link below of last year’s course…

surely its the rules that anything SSXX is singlespeed related?
SSCW? Single Speed Cycling Weekly?
Single Speed Championships of Wales?
Singletrack Classic Weekender innit? Not sure where the extra S comes from though? 😕
Could it be 'Shimano Singletrack Classic Weekender'? Just a thought...
;]
Well, there might be a singlespeed category at this year's Weekender if there's enough demand..?
Would that be the SSSSCW?
Yessss.
