I live in bristol and want to start riding DH more seriously......i want to know where and when i can go to a proper DH track but not have to race. Just go there or fun sort of thing.
Can you please recomend places that are relativly close.....Salute

Thanks

How close is "relatively close"? How long are you willing to travel for?
