MOKL, rather you than me mate. I've seen the state of the solo riders the last few years.

I am doing it officially solo but will be part of a team if that makes sense lol.

@gravitysucks, have only done it once so far, in 2010. Got crippling cramps in my lower back on lap 5, the likes of which I had never experienced before. Managed to drag myself around 6 more laps with the aid of ibuprofen, but this time I hope to improve on that if I can, and more than anything want to eliminate the back pain which still troubles me occasionally. I might just grind round on the sofa/trail bike as it is so comfortable...

Salsa Factory Racing in once again... 11th Mayhem as pretty much the same team. Can't wait!

At risk of sounding controversial, really wanted to ride it solo this year, with no other goal than "competing" against myself and putting a few miles on my "trail" ( hell, that's such a crap term.) bike.
Having tried on and off all day, to get the site to even partially open, I've really lost all interest, so I'll have a weekend in the Dales or Lakes instead.Posted 1 year ago # -
I wouldn't give up, there are probably solo spots left. Why not give it another go this evening.

MOKL ! Cheers for the kick in the arse, probably what I needed. Rode it last year in a a team, first ever mtb event for me, and did what many do I guess and said never again for the first week after, then figured that without all the team politics, just as a personal challenge I'd do it again.

Have you signed up then? I did it in 2010 solo as my first ever mtb event. If you are the kind who likes a personal challenge and to only have themself to answer to, then I highly recommend it. The crowd support for solo was fantastic too.
