just looking for any ideas for mayhem. Anything which people think is a must for it?
Buy some 1.5" Black Shark Muds so you can actually ride the course?
Start getting sorted unlike me 😀
Hows it going matey
Sandals/flip flops for the showers,toilet roll,torch......
Give a hungry adult wolverine a handful of amphetamines, hit it with a wasp's nest, then catapult it into a playgroup.
Guaranteed instant mayhem.
EDIt: Oh. Mountain mayhem. 🙄
Narrow tyres in case of rain would be my 2p - two choices- Schwalbe black sharks or continental XC 1.5s
yeah i'm hoping its dry ha ha tyres are a good call. we have a camper van this year so at least we'll have somewhere (dry?) to sit.
Riding has gone better this year at least thanks to riding to work 🙂
not seen the weather then?
have you got a nice big tent to sit in; comfy chairs - I liked the tents that had a brazier by the front entrance (although mixing fire and tents is usually bad m'kay)
You going to win this year Neil?? 😕
You going to win this year Neil??
Thats a laugh
Si, you know what he's like but winning & take part are all the same in my book. 🙄

LOL!
Sos you don't like the taking part bit ha ha "i'm not going out again!" ring any bells? ha ha
sub 50/55min laps this year neil 😀
just looking to enjoy it and make sure the team enjoy it 🙄
me and a mate are going to have a laugh this year. We've had a total of 5 people drop out of a 4 man team! I'm gunna
* cover my bikes in lights, spokey dokees for the night lap.
* Drinking in between.
* Attach a stereos/speakers to the bike
* maybe do a lap in full body armour
* competition for the slowest lap
I've done it semi serious in previous years so looking forward to taking it easy
Fit the biggest brightest rear light you can find, every one really appreciates that (not) 8)
Mud tyres
Drugs?
Tricky, can I join your team? I learned a new word this week - "tapering" as in tapering your training pre race. My team are doing it aaargh! I prefer your approach.
Singlespeed and mud tyres.
chocolate trifle. white board. small furry cat with bright red LED eyes. smile.
catering trailer, workshop trailer with service engineers, awnings, covered seating area, airsteam caravan - oh crap I forgot to tell the butler to book them!! 😳 Jeeves your sacked!!
ok pop up tent, 5 pot noodles and a will to survive maybe 😀

Oi - it's only Strawberry Blonde Dave who's doing that. Anyway, how's your running training going? Rules are youngest team member does the run...
Take the loudest generator known to man & make sure you run it all night both friday & saturday. Don't worry about everyone else trying to sleep around you, they'll love it!
We had it couple of years ago-a team were running it to run a microwave & lights!
I broke my ankle, no can do 😀
Beer, BBQ and chimenea and 4 mates to ride round whilst you get wrecked the more mates.
If you do insist on riding, take some skinny mud tyres on an orange 5 and wear a pink bra for a few laps.
