Round three of the BDS and it was into the team trucks and off to arguably one of the technically toughest tracks of the season. The steep, rooty, demanding course at Llangollen always makes for an exciting weekend.
Manon reveled in the typically Welsh conditions taking a demanding eight second win in seeding and followed it up with a win in the final, extending her series lead. For Sam and Matt it was a tough weekend, where the smaller lighter riders usually excel, they salvaged 10th and 14th places on the day and are now fired up and ready to do the business in Ft William, as we head to the World Cup in just four days’ time.
unReal is for those of us who escape. A film that celebrates breaking free from the confines of reality and venturing into a boundless world. This place isn’t remote or hard to find, and yet many never see it. Here, glacial walls transform into mountain bike trails, rain and snow aren’t the only elements to fall from the sky and thousand pound mammals become riding partners. Breathtaking visuals conjure feelings of awe and pure joy; feelings that only those of us who venture outside can truly understand. This film is dedicated to you — the dreamers, the rule-breakers, the ones who never grow up, the ones who know the secret — the ones who know the way into the unReal world.
Starring: Brandon Semenuk, Brett Rheeder, Cam McCaul, Graham Agassiz, Steve Smith, Tom van Steenbergen and Thomas Vanderham, with Brook MacDonald, Finn Iles, Ian Morrison, James Doerfling, Matty Miles and friends.
