THIS year's Red Bull Hardline near Machynlleth was cancelled due to the weather conditions.
The event is regarded as one of the highlights of the downhill cycling season with the world's top riders descending on mid Wales.
After difficult weather conditions stopped practice on Friday and Saturday's qualifying the organisers of Red Bull Hardline alongside the riders have decided to cancel this year's event.
A spokesman said: "Having monitored course conditions in collaboration with the riders to provide the best possible chance of putting on a safe event, due to the extreme weather conditions in the Dyfi valley the decision has been made to cancel Red Bull Hardline to ensure the safety of the riders.
