That looks interesting, I think I'll probably give it a go. Thanks for pointing it out.

I'm signed up but my bike is in need of some repair - new wheel, new rear mech and dropout straightening - so fingers crossed. There's some good riding in the area: not highly technical in my experience but very enjoyable.0

That's so tempting. Even just to do the half distance as I'm not fit enough to do the full distance in 2 weeks time! And it's only an hour and a half from me. Hmmmm... Now to convince some friends to take part AND drive me there...

yeh not sure which distance to do yet, probably decide on the day. although i expect you can decide right up to the point where the ride splits (maybe)?

Just got back - totally knackered. Did anyone else go?

Yup. Hardest enfduro I've done to be honest. The long grassy slogs were a bit of nightmare. Manages to bin it about 500m from the finish.0

5hrs 12min of the meanest climbs!
And that bean and pitta bread meal...looked pants but tasted so good.0 -
yep some tuff climbing there, the 75k was an absolute killer, 7 hrs in the end. but i did fall asleep on the grass at the first water stop, my wife threw a surprise 40th birthday party the night before, never a good idea, doesn't go well with riding the day after...........
the bean and veg stew was nice, but tbh i'd have eaten almost anything when i'd finished.
glad i did it though, just to prove how unfit i actually am............

I been told that the top guys there took a full hour off what I considered my excellent time...how do they do it??
7hrs is a very respectfull time...I heard people were still coming in over the 8 and half hr time.0 -
I have to own up and say that I did the shortest route possible. I'm in awe of those who did the full course.

in awe? or possibly laughing at the fools who tried it, my back is still aching today.
