This year’s theme, Forged in the Fort, is a nod to Fort William’s impressive industrial heritage, founded on aluminium smelting, hydro electricity and forestry.
WITH just one month to go before the return of the UCI Downhill World Cup to Nevis Range, Fort William is getting set to welcome more than 20,000 fans to the area for a weekend of high-altitude, high-octane action and entertainment.
The event, voted the best downhill mountain bike event in the world an incredible 10 times by teams, riders and cycling’s international governing body, will host the only UK leg of the eight-round World Cup series on June 2 and 3.
