THE 2020 Mountain bike yearbook
PRE-ORDER BELOW
Meltdown
Pre-order for £16
Meltdown is the 2020 mountain bike yearbook by Misspent Summers.
With fewer downhill World Cup and Enduro World Series races than usual in 2020, we decided to roll our downhill and enduro yearbooks (Hurly Burly and The World Stage) into one while adding a load more stuff from across the mountain bike world.
Meltdown includes reporting and awesome photo galleries from the 2020 downhill and cross-country World Cup and Championships, Enduro World Series and select other events. Plus numerous comment pieces from a total cross-section of mountain biking and people involved in just about every aspect of the sport: racing, dirt jumping, freeride, product development, trail building, retail, travel, event organising, etc.
It is an upbeat record of the 2020 year on the international mountain biking scene with extraordinary photography, top-class design and illustrations, thoughtful features and plenty of other fun stuff like the Ultimate MTB Geek Quiz and Analog Book-a-zine.
You can now pre-order Meltdown for the reduced price of £16 plus postage (price after Jan 10 will be £20). The book will be distributed mid-end January 2021 (it’s been a funny year, we’re a bit behind our usual yearbook schedule! We didn’t want to rush this one as it’ll be a rather special one-off collection of stories and reporting from what is hopefully a one-off kind of year).
