Can't believe it's come round so quickly.

I'm looking forward to it and am hoping the weather stays like it is. I need all the help I can so don't want to many bogs to ride round.

It should be a great event.

So who is coming along? Are you doing the mini or the whole hog?

and....

What bike are you riding and why? This will also help us spot each other!

I'm not sure what I am on. Maybe the Mojo again like last year. You'll know it when you see it. It's very bright.
Considered going SS on my Whyte, but decided I wasn't man enough......

Yes I am entered for the whole week in the male pairs.

I will be on a not very bright, black and white Giant Anthem X - why?, I guess because it is lightish and the suspension will help by the end of the week.

Hope the weather is half decent as I did it 2 years ago when it was stupidly wet.

See you there hopefully.

Not this year, but definitly considering it for next year, my 40th birthday treat ๐Ÿ˜‰ then I'll be doing it on a tallboy, the 29er just loves eating miles ... and by then I might even be able to keep up with it!

I am attending-supposed to be doing the whole thing but the mini looks tempting!

No idea what bike yet but I am hoping for sunshine and a strong tailwind every day.....

People ride it on all sorts of bikes.

Then poor people like Matt Carr and Skills Guiding ride it with no gears and no suspension. Then happily ride past us on all the climbs.

They do normally have hang-over for company though!

I'll be there but not sure whether to ride Flux or Soul.

Either way I'm praying for sun or at least dryness.
