It's time for Tracey Hannah to hit the road again! As we write she is on her way over to Europe for World Champs.

Life of a downhill rider is not always glamorous and it doesn’t always come with a fancy bike park. For Tracey it’s just really her local track, riding it over and over again. A shuttle driver is also a key part of someone’s success and for Tracey, that’s her dad. This combo is crucial to her training and behind her greatest achievements! Follow Tracey down Kuranda, her local training track!

 Some bike rack company is clearly missing out on a sponsorship opportunity with the Hannah family. Poor lass is using a bungee cord.

 So good to see a shuttle ride video where the shuttle doesn't drive itself to the bottom!

 Putting on a clinic. Mind blowing watching pro's hit every turn with absolutely perfect form. I still remember that one time back in '16 I believe it was when I hit one turn with proper form...

 We're all over protective of our favorite athletes welfare, but it looks like she's angled off onto the shoulder and running safely parallel to traffic

 Yep, the track pops you out parallel to the traffic. You run down along the shoulder Smile

 I know another trail that used to do that too!
Trails should not exit onto roads without serious slowdown measures if they have to.

 @50percentsure: she went onto the road.
There should be a barrier up between the trail and the road on the exit of the trail, especially if its popular.

 I don't think she was in danger of getting hit in this particular scene, though it certainly would have given the driver who came up behind her a bit of a scare. You're right though, who knows what the heck is going on on the road, could be some lunatic running wide or a truck.

 Hi from Cairns! It's an amazing place to be, unless it's summer and 35-40 degrees C outside. Lots of good trails for all skill levels

 Kuranda is an awesome track to have as your local! Looking forward to the first WC

 There's plenty of room on the side of the road and you can see the traffic easily when exiting the track onto the roadside. The crazies are the Roadies who ride the road....
