Val d'Isere Video Report : 26th July 2012

Val d'Isere Mountain Bike World Cup track walk

featured in Video Reports Author Robin Deering, Val d'Isere Editor Updated

The UCI Mountain Bike World Cup is already underway with the official downhill training today and yesterday UK professional downhill mountainbiker Steve Peat was on the course inspection with a video walk through. In Steves words 'you wouldn't get an average mountain goat on this track' which we thinks translates into the course is gnarly.

The World Cup Downhill - Qualifying Round starts on Friday, whilst the World Cup Olympic Cross-country is on Saturday and then the finals of the Downhill are on Sunday.
