At the end of the year came the announcement that the Madison Saracen Team is downsizing and keeping only Matt Walker as its top rider (remember that Matt won the DH stage of the World Cup in Leogang). A few hours ago the announcement that Madison Saracen focuses on young people with 3 new grafts.

The British rider is the current DH Junior World Champion (won at Les Gets) and has to his credit five victories in the Junior DH World Cup, conquered battling with the Santa Cruz phenomenon Jackson Goldstone who found a tough nut to crack in the British. Williams joins Loic Bruni and Finn Iles on Specialized Gravity to create a formidable trio: with young Jordan's lap times in the Juniors, he already seems to have the pace to compete with the Elites.

famac@famac.ind.br I am passionate about everything that has 2 wheels: in my youth I practiced competitive cycling on the road and on the track with good results. At the age of 18 I moved to cross country competing at national/international level as U23. Once I passed Elite, I made the choice to take things easier from the training point of view, and that's how my love for gravity disciplines was born, training as an FCI MTB instructor and guide. Now I have made my passion my profession by managing 3 MTB centers on the island of Elba (Elba MTB), creating the FANTAmtb and telling in an ironic but professional way, everything that revolves around MTB thanks to 365mountainbike and 365TV (YouTube 'PULITI dentro BIKER fuori').
