Seems to be attracting a fair number of folk to watch, shame the weather has been uncooperative but has dried out now, not sure what the riders thought of the sharp climb
Anyone else see any of it?

Swansea Urban Downhill thing

Course was pretty dire in my opinion. Loads of steps, tight sections etc. they could have utilised, but instead it was just a big hill to bomb and a lot of pedalling. Oh and that awful flat bank to flat bank jump.

yep, definitely couldve been better, but a cool thing to have in swansea. it just needed more features, a big drop wouldve been cool on the big hill and some turns across the hill wouldve made it a prime watching position. top of the course was pretty sweet, watching the fast boys throw themselves down the first steps was mental.

Awe, I never went up the top! I watched the big hill and the jump. Should have gone up the top.

Haven't we seen a video of a downhill through an urban slum on here loads of times? I thought that was Swansea. No? Weather too nice?

Yes, any footage would be great. My son did it, came 4th :-), bit of a trip from our house so didn't see the race which is a bit of a bugger
Oh and as regards urban slum dd i'd be more than happy to live there, very friendly place for a city, snob.Posted 5 months ago # -
This is a run from one of the lads that rides our local trails.. he placed 18th overall I think..

Sorry if I upset...I was merely yanking Pigface's chain.

Sounds sweet! Thw whole of swansea is pretty much on a hill, so would make for a pretty good race if it was planned well..

I'm surprised no chavs knocked them off and tried to rob there bikes.... seriously lol.

Looks like a fairly achievable course, the only bits I didn't fancy on that is the jump at the end and the green slimey cobbled section!

I always thought there was some good lines for biking down around Mount Pleasant too. I liked the look of that course though.
