The world’s toughest downhill mountain bike race is back! Red Bull Hardline is returning to the Dyfi Valley, Wales on 10th & 11th September 2022 for its eighth edition.

This brutal course is designed by legendary racer Dan Atherton and includes some of the largest jumps and slab rolls seen in downhill mountain biking, truly testing the mettle of the world’s best riders.

Check out the three best rides from last year’s event, eventually won by Red Bull Hardline legend Bernard Kerr.

This year will see the welcome return of spectators to the event and tickets are on sale now! Head to redbull.co.uk/hardline to grab your ticket and be part of the action.

This year Red Bull is once again collaborating with Trash Free Trails (TFT), a community-focused, non-profit organisation with a mission to protect our trails and the wild places they take us.

As part of a long-term partnership, Red Bull Hardline 2022 will be participating in their TFT Approved Scheme for the second year. TFT approved is an independent self-certification toolkit that empowers and enables organisers to massively reduce their single-use plastic footprint and deliver more sustainable events.

The Red Bull Hardline log cabin will be on the ground at the UCI Downhill Mountain Bike World Cup Fort William (21st to 22nd May) for downhill fans to enjoy rider meet and greets, signings and Q&As as anticipation builds for the UK's gnarliest downhill mountain bike race.

If you can’t make that event you can watch all of the action from last year’s Hardline over on Red Bull TV.
