Ros & I participated in the Wicen supported Mountain Bike Race in Newcastle.
Weather was overcast and drizzly and raining at times. Riders were amazingly fit, I think over 300 started and most finished the 4 days race. At the end they were thoroughly mud covered! We didn’t record any medical casualties although a couple of mechanical failures were repaired with the aid of my trusty hex key set!
