The course is brilliant. I rode it on the preview, it's proper ace. NIce tight twisty singletrack, out of the saddle fireroad sprints, massive berms, proper bo singletrack with jumps in it, tricky drops into a stream crossing where the local scallies will laugh at you (and maybe nick your bike) if you crash - what's not to like?
and as for the beer tent - how can you go wrong when the event catering isn't "tiny fatty burger and some ****-weak lager" but rather is "pie and peas with lancaster bomber on tap".
My vote goes for bitter, btw Harry
