Doing this again this year, fourth one I think.
Yeah the mass start thing, everyone trying to get to the front of the start and then walking up the first tech bit, people racing past in the first 2 miles who then blow at Mike 4 and the odd idiot who wants to pass you on the narrow stuff coz they’re so Knarrrrr, do get on my boobies, BUT we go there for the natural riding on the Sat (Caddir Idris this year) the beer, camping, too much food, banter and general good laugh with friends and to enjoy the riding on the Sunday.
Not sure if they’ve changed the start again this year, which helped a bit with last years bottlenecks. The ending was better than a 5mile+ slog round the the woods on the other side of the road, which again was better than previous years, but I guess I’ll find out on Sunday
Who else is riding it this weekend then?..
