[Closed] Whinlatter challenge

That'll be why there's prize giving afterwards then?

so it's a race then

why not call it one?

do they have something to hide?

There's nothing to hide - it's not on bridleways, so no problem with calling it a race. Most people enter it as a challenge, knowing they're not going to win, so for most it's a challenge, so it's called a challenge.........on a mountain bike.......at Whinlatter.

Put it together and what do you get.......
All together, after three.......

think if they called it the Whinlatter Race then the entries would diminish alot. Its a good concept that works and for most entering takes the mentality of having to race out of it ( though i'm guessing nearly everyone was fighting for every position available).

Its a good concept that works, bit like the no fuss events and similiar types of events. Not so called races but the top guys n gals still compete against one another. For most, podiums are not filled with mega big prizes, more just kudos and self fulfillment

so it's only on the south side of the road so as to avoid that really inconvenient bridleway on the north side that looks like it runs past the visitor centre parallel to Comb Beck?
