Get some insight into Reece, where he comes from and how his community helped him get to where he is today. Head behind the scenes to find out more about his riding, but more importantly his hometown and his family.
In 2020, Reece Wilson won the DH World Championships in Leogang, Austria, in the same venue where the 2021 season is about to start.
