Thought it was possible some people on here might be interested in the photoessay here: three guys went downhilling in the ski/emergent MTBing resort of Bukovel, W Ukraine (near Hungarian and Romanian borders), and all end up with injuries. Happy times. 🙂

Looks pretty nice, actually:

I’m not really into DH, but that looks great!

It doesn’t look that gnarly, really, so it might not even be terribly DH-y!
