Mountain Bike

One of the great things about mountain biking ( and there are many) is the diversity within the sport.. yeah it all boils down to man on bike offroad but there are so many different variations.
When I thought about what I wanted to do with my riding in 2010 I decided on a grander challenge… riding the highest, coldest and hottest races in the same year… not only a great physical challenge but also a chance to sample a massive diversity of riding visiting places you would in everyday life never see… many hours have already been spent planning and organising… many hours still left.  Can’t wait to start.
