We are sorry to have to announce that the events have been cancelled and apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Full refunds have now been issued to all riders.

Many thanks to the hundreds of riders that have supported us including those who had signed up to their first race this year and especially those that have been on the journey with us since that very memorable day back in September 2009. (Remember Puddle of Doom!)

We’ve made loads of great friends over the years and have many great memories of the various ordeals and stories that the event created. We hope that you enjoyed yourselves as much as we did and remember the event as fondly as we do – it will always be special to us and it has not been an easy decison to make.

You were all awesome and we wish you all the best in your future mountain bike adventures. See you out on trails.
