  • Sounds fun. Excellent effort.

  • Hah, brutal. Did you sleep or just ride through? What's next?

  • Doesn't look anywhere near as tough as a 45 minute cyclocross race.

    Fuck MTB'ing.

  • 45min CX race? Soft english people, we do hour races here in Wales.

  • Didn't sleep, I only stopped twice for a pee, and sorting food to be accesible while riding along, and couple of times to plug in the garmin to a charging unit. Oh and twice to refill the camelbak with water. Also lots of stopping for gates. I think the garmin registered a lot of stoppage for the ultra slow climbs up rock faces!

    A bloke did it on his CX bike, he looked nearly dead at the end of it.

    I'm an old fella.

    We used to but the popularity of the sport means the more refined gentleman is hived off into a shorter race leaving the young 'uns to do the hour. Much to our heckling.

  • ^ Oz is a young 'un.

    Given their purpose is an hour at HR max round a muddy field I'm not surprised 200 miles overnight wouldn't be particularly comfortable.

    What did you ride? Full sus XC?

  • No, Hardtail Titanium. Made the saddle/bar bags myself.

  • Epic hardcore Gabes, nice work. Fuck 100+miles around Wales, A 60k ride there ruined me.

    And fuck cyclocross ;-)

  • ^ Oz is a young 'un.

    I'm no longer an U23 so don't fit in the young 'un bracket.

    I do old man things anyway.

  • Those lucky old men.

  • And fuck cyclocross ;-)

    After an hour of CXL on Sunday I think my hardtail was thinking the same thing

  • You CX'd on your mtb?

  • Yah the Talbot is with Matt at the moment after an altercation with a car after Herne Hill a few weeks ago.

  • Although I think hitting the car was probably easier on it than CXL round III Hemel was on the F1000sl.

  • Didn't know the Talbot was finished, pics?

  • Anyone want to buy my Anthem before I change my mind? £425ono

  • I need a new set of tyres, looking at on one smorgasbord and continental x kings. Want 2.4 on the front and 2.2 on the rear, what are the on ones like? What others should I look at?

  • On ones are great, I have them on my Single speed.

  • Think they are the winners then. 0n sale with an extra 15% off till Sunday I think.

  • Very easy to set up tubeles too.

  • I've got cheap and very cheerful mountain kings, pretty damn impressed for the money, really grippy in variety of conditions.

    Think andy is a bit more serious about the MTBing than me though.

  • Probably not, but thanks.
