I remember a while ago watching footage of this somewhere (I can't remember where) It was a set course down hill head to head mountain bike vs motor x, MTB winning.

Does anyone know where I can find the footage, I have a mate who Is Into motor x and does not believe me, so I need some evidence.

Unless I dreamt It :D

    was it not against a Motor Trials bike?

    On the right course I can see an MTB winning. You could easily set up a course to generate a win for either however.
    You only need two tools: WD40 and Duck Tape.
    If it doesn't move and should, use the WD40.
    If it shouldn't move and does, use the tape.

    I can't remember the what bikes were being ridden, It might of been a year or 2 ago.

    Daz555 you are right about the course, so It would be interesting to see the footage again.

    Would have been a bit fairer to have an uphilll too :lol: Lets see who can get to the top of glentress first from the bottom car park, an XC champion on a £5000 race bike, or a total numpty on a smashed up old trailie.
