Mark W Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Llandrindod Wells apparently. I can safely say from experience that all the comps are a pretty long way from there Getting up and leaving the house at 4am to get to YMSA rounds sucked, haha.

What is BDS? Yes there are ranks, like any other sport, that divides each competition into categories of ability/age/gender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave33 Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 British downhill series pal ! I was just checking you weren't on about motor bike trials, don't worry your new and will soon pic up the lingo! Your not as far away as you could be, I live near Swansea so it's 4.5 hours drive for me, I'd say you are about 2 hours from Matlock area where there tend to be loads of comps Yes there is a British championship, you get get points depending on you place and gain points There is all levels and age groups.
