Go for it why not. I have been thinging about it but its just to dam expensve for my liking. Around 70quid per race day, unless you can pick up a sponsor that will pay for it. Unluckly im yet to find one. Also including travelling ect. But not to put you off but there are some mentally fast people out there, but on the up it the experience at the end of the day.

Hi Guys, Have you been to the up lift days in Caersws yet? This is a fantastic DH course. The course has been used several times as part of the British DH championship. Google caersws DH and you will come across times and dates for the Uplift.
