Just onderin if anyone is taking part in this years event?

I have a real hankering to give it a go and may well look to enter next year and use it as a training goal. Would like to throw in a few 24h rides too.

Any feedback or thoughts from past competitors much appreiated....

I certainly believe it will be up there among the toughest.

Any advise out there on training specific to multi day events?

Recovery is gonna be your biggest issue, If you havnt allready got a pair get some skins compression tights, and get em on as soon as you finnish. All the usual stuff keep well topped up on liquids and fuel. Ride within yourself dont push to hard.

No specific training other than the fitter you are the quicker you ll recover. Give yourself a good 2 weeks easy riding before the event ( Tapering Down ) and take a weeks leave after..youll need itBest of luck. Are you doing it in a team or as an individual.
