Steve Peat wins another title
July 21st, 2010
The British Mountain Bike Championships were held this past weekend in Scotland’s beautiful Ae Forest. With rain affecting the course throughout the whole day the conditions were tough, but nobody could match the time set by Peaty, despite having ridden with a badly cut arm which he picked up on a previous run. He won his ninth national title, finishing ahead of Gee Atherton (Commencal) and fellow Santa Cruz Syndicate rider Josh Bryceland.
Jess Stone won the women’s downhill event, with Katy Curd second and Helen Gaskell coming in third.
Here’s a great video round up from the guys over at Wideopen Magazine featuring a fair few face spills.
The top three riders – Steve Peat, Gee Atherton & Josh Bryceland – all feature heavily in Chris Ball’s new book “Mountain Biking The Manual”, available now for pre-order.
