The course has been set, the caterers booked, prizes secured and the tents have been tested… now they just need riders.
Black Mountain 3 Day Challenge is an inaugural event and a very ambitious challenge for new promoter Bearded Man. The event has been created from the top down, meaning they have created everything from a rider’s perspective – this is only possible because they are stage riders ourselves and they have considered everything to make this event an absolutely amazing experience.
The Bearded Man team has had fantastic experiences participating in multi day events across the world: “We want the UK market to be able to experience the camaraderie between a bunch of riders tackling daily trails, sharing their experiences over breakfast and dinner and forging new riding relationships as they share the common goal of completing a difficult challenge. Historically the opportunities for multi day events in the UK have been very limited and this is exactly what we want to rectify.
“As the start date gets nearer they need to ensure that we have a sufficient number of riders so that we can create the experiences described above – we don’t have those numbers yet. We have therefore given ourselves until the 30th June 2010 when we will reassess the situation and decide whether to postpone the event. So we are appealing to anyone sitting on the fence or delaying registering to get in there and sign up now because we are closing registration on the 30th June 2010 – you won’t be disappointed.
“We would be devastated if it came to postponing the event, as the amount of time and effort we have devoted to this venture is immense. However, we would rather not run an event than host something that doesn’t get smiles all around!
“The trails are great, the views are fantastic and the stage is set for a tough 3 day challenge. We hope to see you there.”

Hey Shred, the difference between this and the Sani2C are the distances and climbing, the Sani caters for the less fitter rider that’s why it’s so successful. I think if the climbing was less BM3day it would be alot more popular.
