- Free beer from Harveys of Lewes
- Organic Pieman selling nice food
- 4 DJ's on rotation
- Sensational Singletrack
- After party in Brighton with Gary Fisher.

Will the route change if it rains heavily between now and midday on saturday?

Nope but the tyre choice just might! Most of it will run great we hope regardless.

Its nice you kept it all in the park.When I first heard about it I thought the course would have crossed over onto the Downs.Well done Ian,there are some very tasty sections in there.

Looking forward to it.

Question:

First time doing one of these for me. We're in a team of four. How many of the four of can be doing laps at once?

Do we have to do it as a relay one team member at a time, or could we do it in two pairs etc?

Thanks.

Hope everyone had a great day... the singletrack rocked - it was bone dry and the music was just right. Plus to have well over 50 drinking well after midnight in Brighton was a great thing for UK riding!!

 Thankyou!

Had a great day.The course was brilliant,so much singletrack to kick up the dust.Have to comment on how freindly everyone was,no matter who overtook there was always a thank of sorts.Hope this becomes an annual event,Brighton needs it.

Thanks to all who organised a great race

That was me quinny

What an absolutely fantastic course, easily one of the most fun in the UK - the singletrack was just epic, the only reason i kept going out for another lap was the thought of riding those super silly fast sections of singletrack. Nice one Ian

We were damn lucky with the weather, nice to ride in such deep dust but it did make some of the corners a little tasty. Had a few front wheel washout moments...

Hey Dave - missed you there (I was spectating) but well done on the result - fantastic weather, and seems everyone had a great time!

Hi Neil, didn't spot you either. But that's probably because i spent most of my time sitting in the back of my car eating food between some leisurely laps
