A Scottish college is running the UK's only academic course in downhill biking.

hmmm. "Academic" and "downhill biking" in the same sentance?
I always thought it would be Audax and Jey-core-lite that covered the intellectual end of the game...

Presumably its like any university/college course:

American studies = american histroy and literature

Motorsport = mech engineering + process engineering + accounting etc etc

I suspect downhill mountainbiking is in fact just PE with physics and maths.

I might be mistaken and it would be a huge coincidence, but that looks like Chris Ball not Chris Small, whoever he is!
