Last weekend the circus came to town in the form of loads of Mercedes Sprinter vans covered with logos and the odd bus/truck/incredibly huge American 4WD. Yes, mountain bike teams from across the globe made their camp in the car park at Nevis Range for weekend of World Cup competition.
Action from the 'side show' - the British Trial competition. All the things you never knew could be done on two wheels. Or one, for that matter.
You'll here us go on about events like this quite bit throughout the course of the year. There's two reasons for this. One is that we (I) love biking, and biking doesn't get much better than this.
The other is that its quite simply a great event to go and see. Its well presented, plenty to keep you entertained and, as the final runs of the downhill competition approach, the atmosphere and the tension builds, in anticipation of who'll shave seconds off the fastest descent from the gondola top station.
A great day out!
