It was bone dry,not a bad course,a mixture of mainly singletrack,a small amount of fire road,and two bomb holes,about 9 miles a lap,and bloody cold on my feet between 4.10am and 7.40am!
A good mix of abilities and some nice,friendly people and good banter on the way round.
Mostly modern bikes,a couple of retro machines,although even I rode my modern bike,as my RC200 has taken a bit of a beating recently,and I'd rather break nasty modern kit.
I would certainly do it again,great fun.
