East Lothian Rough Stuff

[kaiser]

http://www.aukweb.net/events/detail/16-969/

54km cycling event starting from Dalkeith., plus 1 information control.

Mostly off-road event using the network of paths, tracks and disused railways througout East Lothian.

MTB or cyclo-cross style tyres recommended due to the terrain although may be largely passable on road tyres (weather dependant).

Sounds like it could be retro friendly.

I'm looking at doing it. Might drag Jamie down - we've been talking about the lack of rough stuff audaxes.

Someone should tell them Dalkeith is Midlothian!

I thought the blurb meant they were going to brave the wilds of the spear throwing Easter Lothianites.

Going to T-rudge them?

Probably not, something 28er will most likely be my steed.

Never realised we had a thread for this

I paid up when Brian sent me the suggestion back in March as it sounds like a nice ride, of course it would only be improved by a macretro presence
I will hopefully be on my Mercian which is retro.
