The idea is to give anyone the chance to start racing downhill.
It all started back in 2007 when down at Chicksands i was stood in the car park talking and this guy on a DH bike just crashed head on into a tree!
I didn t even know there was a track there but this just showed peopled like riding down this short track.
So a quick word with Steve Dowie (Chairman of Chicksands Bike Park ) and i said for a laught lets do a Mini DH? race down that track, i know its only short but should be some good fun for the locals.
Now most of these people don t go to any DH races because there are far away or expensive to race, so lets make it cheap on to enter and i will see f we can get some prizes from anyone.
Quick chat with Des at MMA who are the guys for 661 in the UK and the 661 Mini Downhill was born.
