I can remember Jason McRoy being knocked off his motorbike in North Derbyshire.

Dirt is still a class video too

dirt is still (in my opinion) the definitive mtb movie.

i wore my origonal tape copy out, and the same with the free one that came with the mag a few years later.

it was reissued on a DVD a few years ago - but they said the origonal soundtrack wasnt good enough so had put new music on - just didnt suit it. I guess they couldnt get the permissions from the origonal artists Play Dead, Fallen Angels et al having all but disappeared


Theres still a memorial to Jason at the spot he died.

5:41 was the moment it struck home. Jason was a legend.
