who is marc beaumont?

Marc is a 32-year-old DH racer from Craven Arms in Shropshire. He got his big break on the Royal/Orange team in 2001, then transitioned to a full pro deal riding for MBUK in 2005. In 2007 Marc won his first World Cup, in Vigo, Spain, after a poor qualifier worked in his favour and saw him dodge torrential rain in the finals. Three years later, after joining GT, he proved it was no fluke with a follow-up win on the super-rough track in Val di Sole, Italy. Marc took 2015 out from racing to work as a presenter for YouTube bike channel GMBN. Unable to resist the lure of the track, he signed with Madison Saracen for 2016. His best result was 26th at the World Cup in Leogang, Austria.
