The Irish National Downhill Championships

As the vibrant heart of mountain biking beats stronger every year, the Irish National Downhill Championships promise an exhilarating experience for both riders and spectators alike.

 

Hosted in the picturesque Bree, Co. Wexford, this year's event, scheduled for July 20th to 21st, is already creating waves of excitement. With tickets for competitors selling out in just under an hour, it's clear that the popularity and calibre of downhill mountain biking are soaring to new heights.

 

The dig crew at Bree MTB Wexford has been working tirelessly to perfect the track. Their hard work ensures that the course will challenge even the most experienced riders, promising an unforgettable weekend of racing.

 

The track itself is shaping up to be a masterpiece, designed to test the skills and courage of every participant. From sharp descents to technical sections, spectators can expect to see some of the most talented downhill riders showcase their abilities. Whether you're a seasoned biker or a fan of thrilling sports, this event is bound to keep you on the edge of your seat.

 

A Celebration of The Mountain Bike Community in Ireland

 

The Irish National Downhill Championships are not just about the race; they're a celebration of the entire mountain biking community. Riders from all over Ireland will converge to compete, bringing with them their unique styles and unyielding determination. Among the top contenders is last year's champion, Greg Callaghan, who secured his victory with a 1 minute 15 seconds lead over Oisin O’Callaghan. However, this year’s competition coincides with Crankworx Whistler in Canada, so fans might miss seeing Ronan Dunne in action.

 

Despite the absence of some international stars, the event promises fierce competition and electrifying performances. Each rider will bring their best to the track, striving for the prestigious title of national champion and the green, white and orange sleeve on their jersey.

 

Fun for All Ages

 

The Championships aren’t just for the riders; they’re a fantastic day out for families and bike enthusiasts of all ages. With various activities planned for spectators, including food stalls, merchandise booths, and entertainment, there’s something for everyone. It's a perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in the vibrant atmosphere, enjoy the stunning scenery of Bree, and cheer on your favourite riders.
