S Surfr Retro Guru Feedback View Jun 10, 2009 #91 I'vefailed to secure a ride for Mayhem so might look to doing it on the singlespeed. What are the climbs like? I'm a bit of a wimp when it comes to climbs but can drag myself up with the right gears (obviously an issue with SS)

mrkawasaki Retrobike Rider Jun 11, 2009 #97 Who cares about the weather - it can't be worse than the last two years, surely...?! Plus the fact I've got lots of new team mates who must be dying to experience a 3am mudfest... Kev - don't forget my Yeti shirt and I won't forget your Manitou 700c's... Mr K

Grannygrinder Retrobike Rider Gold Trader Feedback View Jun 12, 2009 #100 . I hope everybody is as well prepared as me. My drinking arm is the best shape its been in for ages. Would it be rude if I don't bring a bike at all?
