Pennine Massive MTB section's big day out at dalby forest...

[Paul the 6th]

...and I was the slowest. And the first to fall off (not the only one - see vid below :))... But I enjoyed every second of it :D

Figures: 18.28 miles cycled, 3 litres of water completely emptied from my camelbak, 4.5 hours of riding, 20 flapjack's eaten by 8 people attending... There's probably some more I could think of but my brain is still mashed.

Some of the best pics:

I forgot to get pictures, but did get a short video of PT6 at the end of that section with the woop-de-woops (right term?). Apologies for Mr. 6th's language at the end....
