What multi-day mtb events are there in the UK? I know about the TransWales, but I am looking for something in the 3 day range as a first into to multi day riding.

Cheers

That looks really good. Alas, I'm on a family holiday.

Tell you what flatfish give me £200 and I'll sort you out a route round the Beacons, sort you out a field to stick your tent up, print you a T shirt and bung a few energy bars in your pocket ... job done 😉

vdubber - this is the first black mountains 3 day and hopefully not the last :o)

still - if I had known your details I could have saved months of route scouting in the crazy Welsh winter!! Maybe next year :o))

Black mountains 3 day definately looks the most interesting multi day event around at the moment, i've decided to volunteer and watch other people take on the challenge for a refreshing break 🙂

As this event isn't technically a 'Race' i'm sure this will attract a bigger field of riders so there should be some good trail banter:)

I wondered about that. I presume they're going to actually have a 'winner' etc (and therefore need timings). If not, it's a bit crap really surely?
