Anyone riding this weekend? Not done it before and genuinely just going for the Craic with a couple of buddies and it's all for a good cause. What's not to like?

Literally, nothing. It was superb last year, similarly lovely weather, the stages are all fun trail centre bits with the odd little twist, good vibe, and I particularly love the way you circulate back through the campsite a few times, so you dont need to take loads of food and water out on the trails.ย 

Remember to take water, and cash. I cant remember if card worked last year or not but its a risk. The food van (Chicken and Ting!) they used was superb!

Will be there on a brown Levo SL, say hi!ย

What a great event, really enjoyed the stages with just enough peril for a 55 year old to deal with and some great flowy sections too.ย  The Moors stage (7 I think) was very much like the Peak District natural and it was a super sunny dust bowl up there. Timing worked flawlessly for us and the food as mentioned was banging. Camping was a little haphazard and could have done with some organisation but all worked out fine in the end. Will definitely go again and highly recommend to anyone for a first foray into timed stages or that funduro buzz.
