On August 13th, the series moves to the North East for the second installment at the home of the reigning downhill World Champion; Danny Hart’s Descend Bike Park. With DH tracks, 4X, and miles of All Mountain trails; riders will have a day to experience the whole area.
As well as free access to the parks and free day passwa to the uplift service, there will also be guest appearances by Bell athletes.
Each event will have limited spaces, with registration operating on a first come, first served basis. Registration opens one month before each event and will close when the rider limit is reached.
