Mud, Sweat & Gears
01 April 2007
5km Cross Country Run
20km Off Road Bike
5km Cross Country Run
Every now and again, we visit somewhere that is so special, so perfect,
that we just have to put an event on there. One such place was Sherwood
Pines Forest Park. Facilities are excellent and include a large car park,
dedicated mountain bike shop, visitor's centre, caf�, numerous toilets,
children's playground and picnic areas.
Behind the beautiful woodland settings, lies an adrenaline-pumping venue. No matter what your level of fitness, or how technical your biking is, just the beauty of this venue will ensure that you have a pleasant time. That is, if you manage to take in the scenery. We are not saying that the 1 in 4 hills that you will ascend and descend during the event will stop you, but we dare you to take your eyes of the course for just one second... and see what happens. Please do not get the wrong idea, this is a fun event, but it is intended to test. After all it is called 'Mud, Sweats & Gears' - expect them all!!
Everyone that finishes this event will be a winner, but we have one question, who will be the first over the line; triathlete, duathlete, mountain biker, runner - will the conqueror be on a cyclo cross bike or a mountain bike. We will wait and see - our bet either way is that they will have a smile on their face!!
Are you up for a bit of mud, sweat & gears?
