"Track builder Corrie Muller – who is a dentist when not shaping berms – has designed a compact, spectator friendly track with many obstacles that are sure to test rider’s technical ability as well as their fitness, not to mention put their equipment’s durability under the microscope.", Oliver Munnik via redbull.com
