July 09: British Mountain Bike National Championships

Report

The 2009 National Mountain Bike Championships saw the Downhill and Cross Country disciplines set together on the same weekend for the first time in two years, as always this raised some eyebrows amongst the hardcore cyclists that attend such an event but with "quiet camping" away from the noisy downhillers it was sure to be a successful event.

Downhill always gives a championship weekend the extra atmosphere it needs and this was no different, the arena buzzing with mechanics, riders and spectators in a wet and windy Scotland. <

The Downhill event was packed with stars as Gee Atherton (World Champion), and Steve Peat (multiple world cup winner) took to the stage in front of a rowdy crowd of spectators on a course just under 3 minutes long.
