Downhill for Dummies - MTBNE Uplift Day at Descend Hamsterley

So who's up for it? The idea is to get people who wouldn't normally consider riding DH to give it a whirl in a friendly, no pressure environment (much like the Epics for Dummies Rides) without the pressure of doing it all in front of riders who actually know what they are d… Continue
