Montane Kielder 100 2011

Congratulations to all 180 riders that completed the gruelling 100 mile course in the worst conditions we've had so far in the short history of the event. There's a huge amount of respect for each of you from the hundreds that didn't make it and everyone involved in the event. That was one tough day!

A huge thank you to everybody involved, to all the volunteers and helpers who did a fantastic job throughout the weekened, everybody at Forestry Commission England again for the help they gave us before the event finishing trails and to Stevie for the amazing finish structure, and for the FC support during the event; to the Kielder Community camp site and the communities and businesses of Kielder, Newcastleton and surrounding area, to Rescue Medics, all the caterers - The Duke's Pantry, Alfresco Event Catering and The Olive Tree cafe in Newcastleton.

Thanks to our sponsors for their continuing support and generosity: Montane, Saddle Skedaddle, Rock UK, Accelerade, Juice Lubes, Joolze Dymond, Exposure Lights, USE, XCRacer.com, 7Stanes, Allendale Brewery and not forgetting the incredible guys at the Tech Support stations - Cycle Shack and Bike Seven - who tried their hardest to keep many of you in the event with their technical wizardry when so many bikes were giving in to the harsh conditions.

As you can see there are a lot of people involved in this event and they all help to make it what it is. Race photos are now available from our official photographer Joolze Dymond photography. Full results are on the Sportident website.

We hope you all had a great time. Keep an eye on the website to see when entries for the 2012 event will be opening. Have a great winter of riding. See you next year!

Paul and Sara
