    I did it a couple of years ago. Not really into racing, but it was a great course, lots of really good single track both up and down, and a few climbs on access roads. It's a well run event, I'm considering doing it again this year.

    Got my entry yesterday (2 laps)

    Have not done it before so I look forward to it. Dont know what bike to take though. Fancy the Big wheeled SS 'cos it's new but the trusty 456 will probably be the sensible choice for me

    Last year they reduced the fire road and increased the single track to about 90% of the course.

    OK, you just sold it to me. I'm in. 😀

    Really good fun, second only to the old (1992) Newnham course in Plymouth for course quality. Good singletrack, enough fireroad to overtake (well, be overtaken for me).

    Did it a few years ago and it wasn't full of the ego-fuelled "pro-elite rider coming through on the right" either, so really good atmosphere.

    Let's hope the course is the same then. 😯

    I wish they'd move it back a week – it always clashes with our main holiday / anniversary…

    It's the day after the Afan Monster isn't it? I've heard good things about the FoD enduro but I doubt my legs will be up to it after 100k the day before.

    I've done it.. awesome as people have said, doesn't have the copious toilets and trade stalls of other events, but the circuit is spot on.. I live about 3 miles from it, it'll be the same as in previous years – all apart from the fact the trail is now bedded in and riding lovely 🙂

    I'm in for two laps.. can't wait 🙂
