Dan Atherton

U.K.-born Dan Atherton is a competitive cyclist across several disciplines: BMX, enduro, downhill and four cross. After a severe neck injury, he stepped back from racing to mentor the Atherton Academy, coach local school kids and help develop the mountain bike community in Wales. Luckily for us, he still found time to demonstrate his technical mastery against the world’s fastest downhill riders, as seen in Dan Atherton Sends It Down the Hardline MTB Track (Mountainfilm 2017).
