Gee Atherton

The Athertons have been a powerhouse in the downhill, 4x, and recently the enduro scene. They are arguably the most celebrated family for the sport, as their team is very much different from the others (formed by family members, until the recent adoption of Marc Beaumont).

The series of four by three films featuring the Atherton family has finally come to an end. The last rider featured in the series by Clay Porter will be none other then Gee Atherton, 2008 World Champs (Silver this year, 2012) and 2010 UCI Overall Title Winner.

Gee created the famous step-down to wall-ride in the 2010 Rampage where he was placed 2nd, that particular spot in Utah is now known as the "Gee Gap" today.
