So Hell of the north is on again in a few months time. Registration opens in 5 days. Are you signing up for the challenge?

Glad it starts at 9am with having to trek out there, but looks to be a fantastic event.

Calling it 'The Hell of the South' makes more sense.

How many km's of grave'/pave' is there?

Training? Jas, it's an all-ages, social mass participation ride. Last year there was a guy in a Wookie suit! Everything - start time, even the course - is optional.

Wouldnt have minded giving it a crack, but I have a charity ride on that weekend (heading South).
Be keen for a look next year though!
