    There's a bit in the XC forum. Not sure BikeRadar is pushing it, sponsored by other mags.

    We had a really good time, especially as people started to get tired the banter on the course got better. Some incredible riders, everyone was passing me, men, women, unicycles :shock: .

    Definitely up for it next year if I can cobble a team together.

    Doesn't matter how many people passed you, as long as you had fun :)

    I think MM is a bit a like giving birth (that may be a slight exageration but bear with me), the longer ago it happened the more like it seems like a good idea to do it again.

    As for the unicycles, go here and scroll down :lol: .

    hi, i love mm i've ridden it in a team for the last couple of years, and was entered as a solo this year, but then i found out i was pregnant, and was 5mths at the time of mm so was un able to race, although i did ride the course with my hubby and team before it started, very slowly, and walked the technical stuff!! i plan to do it as a solo next year, all being well!!! :lol:
