With all the big guns out in France enjoying the first round of the World Cup, we weren’t going to let that stop us from having fun here at Aston Hill.

Their first race of the season saw riders take on the famous Black Run, the 18th race to be held on this course. Over the years it’s seen some changes, notably the rock garden half way down.

With spring riding in full flow, many riders headed up on Saturday to get a taste for the course and that famous Aston Hill atmosphere.

Sunday morning saw the crowds arrive, and the serious business of riding was on.

But first let me take a selfie

Thank you to all those who turned up and supported us over the weekend. Whether you were riding, cheering or sponsoring us it didn’t matter – you turned up and made our event the success it was. Thanks Aston Hill for a great day!
