Selkirk Marathon 2010

So I completed the 50k half marathon in Selkirk. Very hard as it was my first marathon. Ive done 50k loads but the 3 hill climbs were punishing especially the last one at 35k. I completed it in just undeer 4 hours.
It was the hardest cycle I've ever done but I'm looking forward to my next marathon and possibly a full one!

10 Under

So 10 under the ben was completed in some real rain. We achieved 7 laps as Team Trust me I'm a Stomach and came a credible 67th (the first 66 teams cheated by using skill and fitness).
Good fun though and great to be in a race. Next up a solo ride for me in the Slekirk Chain Reaction 50km

Fort Bill - Witches Trails

good days riding at Fort William Nevis Range on Saturday at the Witches Trails.
First ride of the day was a pore-race practice on the 10 Under the Ben course. Good and fast at some sections but for most part seemed like a blue run.
After a short break and a biscuit we tried the World Champs XC course. Steep steep steep uphill followed by a fantastic singltrack run all the way to the car park!

Craufurdland

Out riding at Craufurdland trails yesterday and there is a few new bits of singletrck and its all running dry and great just now.

Glentress

Took a trip to Glentress. Warm day but still snow at the top. Got a puncture and Chris nearly had a spectacular crash!

Whitelee 40 miler

Did a 40 mile loop from Darvel to the back of Whitelees windfarm then on down the A77 into Kilmarnock and back to Darvel. Great weather

Firetower Trails

Went to the Firetower Trail near Lochgilphead in Argyll and Bute. I was a bit dissapointed with it it. Biggest section was actually closed for forestry work and the rest was pretty average. The North Shore was quite good but not enought to make me get back on the bike for a second lap.
