The scope of Redbull’s Hardline is hard to fathom. Take another gander at the action from last year’s event and the difficulty of the course and the talent of the folks who rode it start to come into focus.
Technical, snaggle-toothed rock gardens. Mandatory, awkward hips. A gargantuan, blood-curdling road gap.
Returning to those rocky Welsh hillsides, Dan Atherton, Redbull and a crew of the world’s best downhill mountain bikers will push the limits of what’s possible on two wheels. The action goes down(hill) this coming weekend (Sept 12-13), stay tuned for an update first thing next week.
