David Knight vs Gee Atherton

David Knight takes on downhill mountainbiking champ Gee Aherton:



Apparently, this was only the second run Knight had on this downhill course - a course setup for mountainbikes and one that Atherton knows well. Shows the pure talent, skill and speed Knight has.

Surprised that Atherton feels that it is 50% bike on downhill mountainbiking. I love Knight's comments about buying a bike from a shop and then competing at world level on it... because that's exactly what he did last year. He gets a standard Kawasaki MX bike... spends a few hours on it in his garage to convert it to an Enduro bike and then goes and wins a World Enduro Champs round on it. Genius!
