I am just feeding the No Fuss publicity machine here but what the hell.

Unsubtle suggestions that they're bringing back the [s]dreaded[/s] [s]legendary[/s] sorely missed fort william 6 hour endurance dh. This fizzled out a few years back after they forgot to tell anyone it was on, terrible loss imo, really unique and awesome event... Every time I talk about it people say "wish I could have done that" so if you're into it, let them know!

It's not just for superheroes either, I did it 3 times and I'm just some knobber. To be fair, it might have been connected in some way to the disintegration of my Hemlock ๐Ÿ˜†

13 run gauntlet thrown. I don't have a downhill bike any more... 29er dh? Fatbike? Er, hire one from Alpine and don't tell them why?

Oh, yes please! I was gutted when I first heard about this, only to find that it was no longer running.
Got to be done.

Are you sure they'd not just ask if they could start early?

I'll be taking mine down it later this year, should be a laugh. But I'll not use it in the race (assuming it goes ahead), just because it's too uncommon an event to mess with- if there were 2 or 3 a year I'd be well up for it though!
