See I do have a DH bike but like the specialist bit of kit it is there is a certain way to ride it or you’re just slower than on a trail bike….my situation in other words!
I’m sure if I spent all year on it I’d get there but life’s too short.
So, in light of these new BDS rules for single crown bikes I’m going to Langollen with my Trance SX 650b (160mm fork, 158mm rear conversion and 26 inch back wheel to drop the rear of the bike and further kick out the forks to slacken out the HA)…. It’ll either be a hoot and the saving grace of dwindling entries or riders like me on inappropriate bikes will die in a wreck on the hillside as we’re woefully out of our depth!
I’ll be reporting back after next weekend from my hospital bed.
