Kye gives you a guide to the 2008 Red Bull Empire of Dirt course

Despite the rain, a whole lot of riding got done - check out the epic day at the Decoy Trails in Newton Abbot. Kye and the Newton Abbot crew have spent years lovingly crafting these trails; so it was a pretty special day for everyone.

Even the rain couldn't kill the spirit of Red Bull Empire of Dirt - don't take our word for it - ask Brian Foster, Gary Young, Kye Forte, Anthony Napolitan and a bunch of other awesome riders who came out....

Despite the rain that forced us to cancel the event - there was still plenty of riding done, Devon-style - check out the highlights in this video.

Gary Young had a dream.... we're stoked that Empire of Dirt is making it come true....

The riders arrived in Devon today. Check out their reactions when they beheld the unbelievable Red Bull Empire of Dirt slopestyle course for the first time! Kye Forte & Bas Keep tell us how it went down....
