Aaron Chase: good doctor appt today for my back. 3 years later and the rods are still holding strong. He did tell me I have "dead butt syndrome" though?
HOW DID YOU GET INTO RIDING MTB:
My brother has always been into riding, I was taking photographs of him at a race one day and decided I wanted a crack at it, it looked fun. After a few times out on borrowed bikes I got a Kona Stab bought for me and threw myself down Fort William Downhill track- I guess I never looked back really.

Scott Beaumont – World Cup Round 5 - Val Di Sole, Italy.
Qualifying – 9th

Mislav sent us an update on his latest travels. here is what he had to say...

Scott Beaumont sent through an update on his weekend at Bike Radar. The even twas a busy one for him with Scott competing in the dual slalom as well as conducting some interviews on the main stage. The 20 second dual slalom track left no room for mistakes, and after coming unclipped on one of the corners Scott was unfortunately eliminated in the quarter finals. Over the weekend he also conducted interviews with Steve Peat and brian Lopes which went down really well with the crowd. Here are some pics from the weekend.
