I've done mountain mayhem 3 times now and although i thought this years event was fantastic and the course amazing i'm thinking of maybe doing a different event (team not solo!). What would people recommend?
Strathpuffer's good
Kielder 100, C'mon Neil, join the boys!!!!! 😆
Last year we did Relentless 24 (early October) as a warm-up for Strathpuffer.
It worked well to break us into things.. wouldn't have fancied the 'puffer as my first one!
All the No Fuss events are brilliant, the Ten Unders, Relentless.
(However if you thought the course was great at Mayhem you might find these not to your taste ? They tend to be a lot more technical than Mayhem, which is riding around a grassy field by comparision.)
Strathpuffer is something else again, although not as cold as I thought it would be and the course wasn't that difficult if you were lucky enough not to go out on the icey fireroad of death laps !
*cough* i can handle my own on the technica stuff *cough* ha ha
This years course was great in comparison to the others that i've done there, also helped by the weather.
I was just looking for tips on which one to do next.
As long as it Green or Blue rated... 😉
I didn't do Mayhem this year have to admit but last years course you needed to take a book with you on your lap. Anybody know if I will need to take a book for Sleepless this year any rumors/chat on the go yet ?
Almost hoping it's muddy...
quadruple WHW is the new thing.
