I'm an old roadie, but this looks interesting.

Anyone done any of these events, and how technical is the trail in terms of riding?

I reckon I could find my way most places, but whilst I'm happy to ride on paths and tracks, I'm too old to get into technical trails.

I do try to do as many as Gorrick can squeeze in. Down southt the terrain is different so I cant comment on that but it doesnt really matter. My first one I was 10 mins late and lost some points but didnt come last. A group of us normally do the Summer Polaris as well, 2 days of questing smile

Most of what we ride down here is bridleways and road, very little technical stuff is ridden as it slows you down. As you plan your own route you can go where you want to.

Did a couple of Gorrick ones around Yateley a good few years ago with my eldest in the father and son cat. Quite enjoyable especially when you don't know the area. We won our class on the second event....
