Mountain Bike Trails in Northern Ireland

Kilbroney Challenge, 23 June 2007

Physically brutal. Twice up Slieve Martin, on foot then on the bikes, and a hazy memory of some orienteering and a sea paddle and some other stuff. Tango and Cash 5th over the guts of 4 hrs and 45 mins. Winners cruised home in a cool 4 hours.

Congratulations to the organising team at Not The Sunday Run, who know how to throw a party. Rostrevor - what a GREAT place for biking!!

Be Fourth and Multiply

CCAR adventure race on Slieve Gullion on 16 June. Tango and Cash way off the pace of the leading 3 after a few mistakes (and a waning of fitness!), but came home a happy 4th.

Here are a couple of pics of what we might have seen if the visibility had not been close to zero! (Photos from Mythical Ireland)
