The famous Mass Descent race known as the BLAST, took place last weekend in Co. Wicklow.  The event was sponsored by Red Bull who added it as one of their international events and had one of their best MTB Athletes in the world Gee Atherton competing in the event, Gee won the 2010 Downhill World Cup!

Gee was joined by his brother Dan who is also World Cup winner himself and their task was to take on over 300 Irish mountain bikers!

The Blast was won by former Olympic XC mountain biker Robin Seymour, 021racing’s Greg Callaghan couldn’t repeat his 2010 victory, finished a fantastic 5th place, just beating Gee Atherton into 6th and 021racings Rob Davis put in a great run to take 8th place!

Well done lads!

Next stop for 021racing is the final round of the Irish Downhill Series in Yellowater, Northern Ireland in two weeks.
