Matt Page (Voltage) - A Season Review!
It seems like such a long time ago that I was planning my 2008 season and now here I am writing a conclusion to what has been my best year of racing to date. After a brilliant end to 2007, winning Dusk ‘til Dawn I had big goals for the following season of racing with my 2 main goals being to win a 24hr solo race, ideally Mountain Mayhem and to defend my Dusk ‘til Dawn title.At the start of 2008 I was living in Cardiff, working as a cycle courier. What could be better than being paid to ride a bike? I was doing no specific training, just trying to add a few things into my work routine to try and improve a few parts of my riding.
What to take with you when you go mountain biking
We've all seen the pictures in the magazines of riders out in the wilds armed with nothing more than a tiny seatpack. But in reality there's plenty you need to take in order to be self-sufficient so that you can help yourself or others should there be an incident. Andrew Joesph, a qualified mountain bike guide, spills the beans on what you should take with you when you go mountain biking.
Penmachno Trail Closed for Cambrian Rally
The trail will be closed for one day on Saturday the 1st of November due to the Cambrian Rally taking place in the forest above Penmachno. Please observe the closure for your own safety. It will be open again on the Sunday.While I've got your attention, if I could remind everyone that there's an Honesty Box at the trailhead and any contributions are always welcome.
