Oddly it holds great appeal. Has anyone done it? Was the suffering worth it? Please tell me about it, I'm hoping some first hand experiences will either tip me over the edge and have me drawing up training plans or simply put me off and have me slump back down into the sofa with a cup of tea ๐Ÿ˜‰

Anyone?

Cheers

I've ridden it but not raced it.

Sounds epic!

Saw the xxc article and I've had a bit of a chat with Jason from xxc mag about it ... trouble is,*Americans often seem to have a slightly different angle on things to us, with plenty of racing for the lord type of stuff going on ... Ride the Divide is a good example of the differences between us and them.

* Any Americans please don't be offended.
