Issue 223 of MBUK magazine recently hit the newstands here in England, and Esher Shore is listed as one of "50 things every mountain biker should do in 2009"
For those of you new to the Banshee/ Mythc blog, Esher Shore is Mythic's UK base of operations with the Freeborn Esher shop backing onto the awesome Esher Shore bike park...not many shops have a 3 acre, 4km bike park in the backyard ;)
You'll find the Esher Shore trail crew test riding their latest trail building creations on their Mythic Wildcards, Scythes, Runes and Rampants
With a membership of +6,500 riders Esher Shore is always busy, even during the dark wet winter months, as its one of the only riding spots that is truly all-weather...
...there are massive plans for Esher Shore in 2009: a brand new double-length pump track that has just been finished and will open in the New Year, lots of trail rebuilding and the "slopestyle" park being relocated into the shore area to take advantage of the elevation drop, and a "skills zone" being built on the existing slopestyle park
