Saturday is practice all day followed by a Trials Team display between 19:00 and 20:00 in the large car park next to the Traquir Arms on the corner of the high street.

Sunday is race day, practice in the morning and then it's straight into racing after lunch followed swiftly by podiums and wheel-spins off before dark!

Innerleithen also has several graded XC routes so come along and hit up the XC trails, stop off and watch the Worlds best down hillers then mingle in the pits. We have laid on a large marquee, toilets, caterers, sound system, live timing and commentary.

What more do you want to know? Parking and spectating is free!!

Alpine Bikes are series sponsors and have eight stores throughout Scotland:
Aberdeen
Glasgow (Gt Western Rd)

Edinburgh
Stirling
Inverness

We look forward to seeing you all trackside.
