It’s refreshing to see Red Bull acquire new talent to help present and bring us content from the World Cup. Both Eliot Jackson and Tracey Hannah joined the Red Bull ranks this year. We’re looking forward to seeing more from both of them.

Eliot takes us through DH practice looking at the track, chatting to people and checking out some riding. Here are the highlights from practice in Leogang!

Is the Downhill MTB World Cup track in Leogang ever really dry? Answer for 2021: “Probably not.” Frequent summer storms moving through the Austrian Alps are changing riding conditions by the hour, keeping things interesting for everyone inside and outside the tape. Expert field reporter Eliot Jackson walked down the legendary venue, observing the world’s finest dialling in their lines and learning where Saturday’s race could be decided.

Not too good about writing about myself, but not so bad at writing about other things. There was a time that I hated bikes, but then they became my life. Wouldn't be the person I am if I hadn't been on this journey. Here's to bikes, drinking tea and everything that comes with life on two wheels. I'm Lauren, I like bikes and writing about them. Always trying my best and up for adventures.
