See how the pros manage when things get technical!
EPIC MTB are offering a chance to ride the Nationals course with some of Ireland’s top Elite and Master’s riders.

This is aimed at sports level riders who are unsure what to expect from the Nationals and would benefit from a view pointers on line selection and race technique.

“With EPIC’s reputation for building highly technical course we want to show riders that the whole course is rideable and that every level of competitor should give the Nationals a go!.” Luke Smaul, EPIC MTB
