Day 1 of Darkfest and my brand new Scott Gambler downhill mountain bike got the perfect first run test. I was nervous as they've some how made the biggest jumps here, even bigger again (for some reason) but as soon as I dropped in with Matt Jones and Tom Isted at 6AM in the morning, I knew I had to go full top to bottom on the first run at the sickest freeride event of the year, Darkfest 2024.
