12 hour off road night ride - 19.09.09

I'm thinking of doing this https://www.bhf.org.uk/get_involved/take_part_in_our_events/event_finder/view_event.aspx?ps=1000475

Any of you motley crew fancy it?

that looks cool, I rode there earlier this year, its alright like, not super tricky or steep but o.k. guess you know it too?/
I am tempted cos have friends near that would most likely join in, after mayhem last couple of year ahve enjoyed night riding.
only thing that puts me off is the cost and fundraising, fiddy dorra not much but I put 2.5 k in the bhf tank back in 96 and still feel in credit with them.
whats the team situation? or is it all solos?

i think you only need to 'try' and raise the money

Don't really know the area not really ridden off road since I moved to brighton so seeing this as a good excuse to build one up!

mtbs are the new fixie!
im on my to gettting andy to get a new mtb!
get one kelvin and ill show you what your missing out on!

Just up my street but im sans MTB.. would have been ok if i bought that tricross i saw on ebay for £150

so whos going to this?
we have a three man S/S team going, name SHIVA POWER.
looking at 15 laps of the 9 mile circuit at least, getting hyped about it,
be cool to meet up.

well, completed 15 laps in the fastest time, mens 3's winners ;-) cracking night out, still as, and good circuit. we left the gearengers behind- really wierd that there were loads of them not bigringing it down fire trails as fast as they could?
as this was first one, and new venture for B.H.F maybe worth a few words,
organisation was good, and for your £25 got a finishers tee, medal.
there wasnt any obligation to raise funds although was mentioned quite a lot.
p.c during the night had a few glitches, although generally good and available for riders self-timing checks,
forestry comm not really clued into event, however B.C. Commisssaire ace, briefing good and circuit best it could be for area.
all in all a success, and likely to happen again next year.
even better Single Speed power won it. yeaaah bwoy.

yeah bwoy! congrats.

Ironically I can get hold of an MTB now - really fancy doing a night or 24 hour banger..

have a look out for one mate, I could be persuaded very easily

hey hey,
heres the full results:-

Im thinkin what do you eat on a 24hr? just epo, ripped fuel and red bull?

the dude who got the 16 laps didnt eat! just drank and nibbled bars. have a look at his solo time he was ripping it round, did have gears though-pussy.

if im riding for that long im going to be using 10000 gears and 5 inches of sofa suspension.. and crystal meth
