bit far north but hell people were traveling 700 odd miles or more to do it so might as well ask ...

i did it ... hel it was hell .... my bike was a borrowed 16 inch frame (i usually use a 20-21 for xc) with little or no back brake and only a middle and outer chain ring ....

but the atmosphere and the race its self was awesome !! deffo gonna do another once i have my xc bike (tomorrow)

dunno if u southerners get "the adventure show" but it will be broadcast on there ...
