More Downhill Racing At Aston Hill

If you have not already heard the whispers, Aston Hill will be hosting its second Downhill race of the year on Sunday, September 13th.

The Aston Hill Mob write…

“After the huge success of the Black Run race in March, we now bring you The 423, a mash up of existing tracks with some new sections thrown in for good luck. As before there will be BC points and great prizes up for grabs, a broad range of categories (including hardtail) and some of the finest downhill trails in the south east. In our usual cagey fashion we are keeping details close to our chest but everything you need to know right now can be found online at http://www.rideastonhill.co.uk/423.html

“Did someone whisper “even better than last time round”, “Gee Atherton signed helmets” and “perfect weather”? Well if they did, we can assure you of at least two! As for the weather, we at Aston Hill are abstaining from all things naughty just so we may in return be blessed with rays of sunshine on the day. So fingers crossed!”

Although I am a Lancastrian, I freely admit that West Yorkshire is my favourite place to ride. Rarely a week goes by without me riding and exploring the South Pennines.
