Time to hoof this one back up the forum. Saves starting a new thread to drum up publicity.

OK folks - left the Peak for the bonny bonny banks and have been busy over the winter. After doing a lot of the Dark and White events over the last few years and a couple of NEMBOS / NYMBO and SMBO events have decided to try my hand at planning one (well jointly). After quite a bit of exploring and some quality google earth time I think I've come up with some good stuff. Minimal tarmac, yes there will be fire road but kept the motorway to a minimum and there might even be - shock horror - some singletrack. Hopefully dry sunny weather - the veiws are fantastic.

For those wondering about conditions:
I was out early this morning and though there was the lightest of snow in the air the tracks were frost-free and I even spotted some rare blue sky (no promises for Saturday mind!).

The dry wind means that it doesn’t feel that bad (I was out in a pertex and light gloves I got free with a magazine and soon got too hot).

Conditions are pretty fast, we may close a couple of controls depending on the weather later in the week but so-far so-good
