Steve Peat

If you like your downhill racing then you must know this name! Its like the Heinz of the baked beans world! To quote Rob Warner from Le Brasse WC this man has done more for world downhill than Asama binlaeden has done for terrorism! haha As good as 36 years old well into the teens of racing a full world cup circuit every year! this season has taken off for him! 3rd in South Africa, 1st in France and 1st in Andorra! and on the side? well hes taking his 8th consecutive win in the Lisbon Downtown race in Portugal.

He has took 3world cup series titles and now its looking like a fourth. Coming into his home WC race hot off 3wins in a row. Things are looking the best they have since 2006 when he took his last overall.

He is now the most successful downhill racers ever in terms of most world cup wins with a tally of 17! The only thing to eluded him so far is the world champs. A one off race, one run down the hill, one title for the rainbows! Its his year watch out for him in Australia at the world champs cause hes gonna do it!

Keep it pinned (Steve Peat)
