Isnt terra riding that for a bet? Something like calling Brant’s bluff for £500 or something 😉

TBF, fat SS for ten laps ought to have been a safe wager 😀

That looks horrific

queue for the jetwash

sat here eating sweets, I feel their pain

queue for jetwash…..thats a joke right ??

nope

Rode last year and loved it. Lap 1 was a bit slippy as I recall, but least it was all perfectly rideable. thank god we didnt enter this year. I only live an hour away, where can I get a box of 1000 mechs at short notice?

no, it’s like that every muddy year. It’s usually full of people who jetwash their bike within an inch of it’s life before they put it in the audi and go home

yep. That looks horrible.

That doesn’t look fun. At all. Why do people do it?! 😕

Sat on Andorra, great weather and trails thinking I know why I don’t bother with events when the weathers bad.

there were loads of smiles too…

MAD but brilliant.

looks like fun..respect go everyone who gets to the finish.

Looking at some of those photos it is not as bad as I thought it would be. Definitely a year for mud tyres though.

Is there any trail? I mean like single track? Or all round a field?

Yes,but it’s too far for him to walk to take pictures of it…………

Is it only the girls smiling?

The 3rd pic down is Tim Flooks & he’s been to every Mayhem.
You’d think the sun would shine on him at least.

My bike after one lap…..and I had stripped the mud off it soooo many times on the way round.

I’m so glad I’m never going to bother doing THAT again!

There are really bad bits, but most of it is ridable.

The horror, the horror.

I went down to watch, course looked awful in parts but seemed to be drying up. The mud was proper claggy by the time I left.

The atmosphere was good and most the riders seemed to be enjoying themselves

wtf happened to that turdis? hypergolic vindaloo or something?

We had one get blown over at an event when a squally storm blew in. That was not pleasant at all – wouldn’t believe how far the sh** could travel. £150 extra clean up fee added to the tab for that too. Least the farmer wasn’t too upset.

Looks like a “fun” clag fest there though.

First Mayhem I’ve ever missed. In an odd way, I’m sorry that I’m not there. I do love a good moan about the mud 🙂 And once you’re out, it’s never THAT bad…

Top marks to Flooksie, he wins the crown for going to all of them, though I think Nick Wallis is still secretly the winner.
