[url= http://www.broughtoncastlesportive.co.uk/ ]This sportive near Banbury[/url] looks like a pleasant spin out and not too far from home for me. That's about it as I am very time poor at the moment. Daughter weekends, festivals and holidays are all eating into bike time.

Soloing the Glentress 7 again but I don't have an XC bike any more so will be a bit slower than last, on the fatbike ๐Ÿ˜† And the Scottish Enduro Series Dunoon (never ridden down there, and there's a botanical garden and a ferry trip, win!), and No Fuss Kinlochleven enduro (because they're always so damn good- will be nice if I can avoid trashing my bike this year...)

Think that's it! Much less this year, I overdid it a bit last.

I'm part of a pair on the Glentress 7. First proper event I've entered so hoping it's a good laugh.

It's really good somouk- can be a fair amount of hanging around, in a pair but the routes have always been fun and the atmosphere's great. I'd sworn off this sort of thing after having basically zero fun at 10 Under the Ben but I did the first GT7 purely because we got free entries, and it was mint. Been back every year since, trio and pair and solo.

I'll be easy to spot on a bright yellow fatbike so if you see me, say hi ๐Ÿ˜†

I'm doing the Hamsterley TT tomorrow (17th), a downhill at Eastgate over Durham way in August I think and another Hamsterley TT towards the end of the year (can't remember exactly when, October-ish I think) on different trails to the first one ๐Ÿ˜€

Hamsterley Beast in May

About all I can fit in this year. Bad timing mostly, and the North Pennines MTB marathon/Garrigill Grinder sadly cancelled.

Edit: + Ride to the Sun on the "road" bike

PMBA Rd. 2 tomorrow.
IOM 2 day Enduro in July
Ard Rock
Just need to get a couple events sorted for later on in the year and I'll be happy. New category this year, Masters. I have a sneaky feeling it's just as stacked as the Seniors so no0 hope of better results. ๐Ÿ˜
