A DH track has been seen on TV on the Country Tracks Programme down in Devon and Cornwall. Designer was and interviewed by was Rowen Sorrell, and TV presenter Matt Bacon tested the new tracks out. Nice one to both. Matt Bacon looked absolutely shocked when saw better riders flying like Concorde over the jumps and step downs.

    Been meaning to check it out when I'm next down to see the folks, though looks a bit too DHilly for me. Sounds like there are chicken runs though :D. There's also the woodlands place nearby run by the same lot. Trail/XC kind of place I think?
