Synopsis:
Episode 10 of The Atherton Project kicks off back home in Llanrhaeadr, Wales. Ever since moving here, Dan’s been meaning to get to work on building some tracks and jumps in the back yard – and it’s a great excuse to have some fun with a large digger…

Then it’s a short trip up the road to Llangynog for the Red Bull Weekend Warriors event – a chance for young and up-and-coming riders to join the Athertons in their own back yard, hit the downhills and get some expert coaching from the family along the way.



Now in its third season, Red Bull’s reality TV series ‘The Atherton Project’ is a fly-on-the-wall show tracking the exploits of the most famous family in mountain bike history. Follow British riders Dan, Gee and Rachel Atherton as they compete in events around the world in the 2011 season.

Series 3 of The Atherton Project can be found on Red Bull TV. Check out The Atherton Project website for more information.

 Dear Athertons, Thank you so very much for keeping the fire stoked for all of us. It is really incredible what your crew can achieve with self promotion videos. It is truly a win win situation for anyone who loves Downhilling. Lastly, I am giving a shout out to Alex Bond. Great stuff! I hope to see and ride with you again on the slopes at Les Carroz, "home of the loam" France. Please, do not forget to twist the Athertons' arms and bring them too! I would be so sick.

Ride loose,

 I have really enjoyed all the Atherton Project episodes. I wish more of the pros would do stuff like this. Maybe they just aren't as cool.

 Atherton drinking game. It's easy. Take a drink every time Dan, Gee or Rach say "you know". Everyone will be smashed by the end of one episode!

 Would work just as well with "stoked"

 Didn't realise my occasional family weekend haunt had any downhilling going on there, Llangynog is awesome - Bring a torch to sneak around the old slate mines and if you climb all the way up there's a load of Bronze age round houses to be seen. Fantastic views to be found too.
