While you are there, you should have a look at the Challenge Ride Times as there are a couple of new names on the leader board and the For Sale page - a new(ish) bike is there for the taking!!

Mitch Greenway competed in the second round of the MTB National Championships finishing the weekend off with TWO fourth places and a sixth - WELL DONE MITCH.
