Mayhem - time to get scared

With less than a month to go I thought I was getting my head round the idea of riding for 24hours but am starting to get a little worried…

King of the Downs

King of the Downs

So yet another event to consider for the summer of 2011, this time though it is on the road so flimsy light bikes and possibly even lycra should be considered!! Route maps and more importantly energy drinks will be provided on the day.

On Sunday 22nd May Evans Cycles are running [...]

Sleepless In The Saddle 2011

As we are in event entry season I’m going to make a last bid to round up people to save me and Phil from our traditional pairs entry to Sleepless. The info’s all here.

It’s a lot more relaxed than Mayhem – more people out just to have a good time and a much smaller [...]

Mountain Mayhem 2010 - the sunny one!!

waiting at the start – Cathy is in there somewhere

Well 2010 saw a pretty much mud free Mountain Mayhem, so the much talked about deal with the devil paid off with sunshine and dry weather.

Gorrick Enduro FAIL!

Bank Holiday weekend at the start of May brought round the Gorrick Enduro.

A 4 member “team cakeriders” came, saw but unfortunately certainly did not conquer.

back on the bike

post race

Well after a fairly bike-free last few weeks in preparation for the London marathon I can now get back on the bike.

Rather foolishly the first attempt at being back on the bike is the Gorrick Enduro on May 2nd, not doing the full distance but 30miles on the singlespeed should be [...]

pre-alps skillz

Following on from the Pre-Alps Prep post of a couple of weeks ago we have gone ahead and booked a course with All Biked Up.

We have booked a private course that we can tailor to our needs, how much Alpine descending we will be able to re-create on Holmbury Hill I [...]

gorrick enduro challenge anyone?

Probably a bad idea but thinking about having a go at the Gorrick Enduro Challenge.

It is 100km that involves doing 7 laps of a 10mile course around Swinley. If the full 100km seems a bit much there are shorter options from 3 laps upwards.

Although no massive hills at Swinley Forest it is pretty [...]

lets talk mayhem

always sunny @ mayhem ;)

I know we have posted about this before but with Entry Forms coming out at the end of February thought it would be worth getting an idea of who was up for giving it a go as could look at entering 2 teams.

If  you want to find out [...]
