About us

Welcome to bucksmtb.co.uk the Home of Buckinghamshire Mountain Biking...

Three of us started this humble site back in mid 2002, with our original ideas and aim being purely to just showcase our personal mountain biking photos and local XC trail guides. Over time and with the interest from local riders and local shops we started to develop the site, into what we wanted to be the ultimate Buckinghamshire MTB club and info website - we still fight to keep this!

Our XC influence was soon broken, but not forgotten, when we dispersed into the fast world of Downhill Mountain Biking, both in racing and photography. Since then, over the five years or so that we've been open, we have developed the site with galleries, tech tips, a dedicated junior development race team, a very busy forum, reviews, interviews, bike shop listings, links and much more, and Scott still amazes us with his regular gallery entries.

We also try to follow and attend as many race events as possible, especially local events. We try our best to turn up to as many events as possible both to race and to spread the 'bucksmtb' name. Our race teams of the past several seasons have made us very proud, with all riders getting superb results all over the UK and getting us National recognition. Several of our ex team riders have moved onto much bigger and better things in the MTB racing scene too, and we are extremely proud to have been part of that and to help them progress on.

To this day we still try to meet our original aim, to showcase and build an ultimate index for Mountain Biking in Buckinghamshire, for all MTB disciplines (DH, XC, 4X etc), and we regularly update the site with new articles, local race news, new galleries, local route guides, and things for you to get involved with - and when were not doing that, were just improving the content we have currently.

We are however always on the look out for help with the website. If you would like to have your photos, trail guides, tech tips or reviews shown on this busy site, then please do send them in, like so many people already have. Just email content to us and we will get it online.

Group rides are now up and running, and plenty more are on the agenda. Keep checking back to site or sign up for our regular email updates newsletter (via the home page) to be kept up to date with our regular monthly group ride fixtures.

Do please sign up on our forum though, to take part in some of the 'unofficial' forum ride get together's which have become a regular occurrence for both DH and XC riders.

For 2008 we saw the introduction of bmtb.co.uk a shortened web domain URL for website use. Along with it taking less time for you to type, it meant we had more scope for users to be able to find us on search engines, and the shorter bmtb name gave us more scope for logo design for race kit etc.

Please check out some of our supporting partner websites and race team sponsors sites, and please check back soon for more updated articles and news...
 

Happy Riding
