Is there a new category of DH racing where you ride the bike like a hobby horse? Otherwise he's going to find it a bit hard with his bikes set up like that...

Sorry Mr Longden if you're reading. Good luck for 2009.

I ride DH like my bike's a hobby horse IWH -  with my legs dangling either side to balance myself

Will's been racing for aaaages it seems -  I remember him on team-MBUK , must have been oooh at least 11 years ago..

If he's left MBUK/Bikeradar, who do they actually have riding for them now?

I do have to admit I saw one of the 2009 models in my LBS yesterday and it did look rather spangly. Brand new stock and they've already knocked £500 off the price.

No demo bikes though and he looked at me in an odd way when I asked about frame alignment.

Is it not Marc Beaumont and Neil Donaghue?

 Beaumont's on a GT. 

So it must just be The Don all on his lonesome this year...
