The Downhill course in Loudenvielle is one of two, distinctive halves. The top section, which starts close to the famous 007 Airport, is incredibly fast. Riders will gather huge momentum here before the track switches from fast and open, to steep and very technical. A key section for spectators is in the lower woods – where the race is often won or lost! This course suits the strong all-rounder athletes who have the speed and technical ability to push it to the limit.
More information on the Enduro course coming soon.
