This event was a legend. Qualifying in the morning with the main event starting after a suitably long French lunch and finishing late at night. This is a video of the '96 event and so there is much less glitter than would be around today if the event was still being run. Things to take on board. There i...
Hearing tales of successful crossings of fords which aren't usually passable led me to remember 201-032,which I looked at then mentally shelved until the words prolonged drought should be spoken. I don't expect the Tamar is low enough yet so don't blame me if you drown,but has anyone ever ridd...

A point of order. Near the bridge over the river on the Old Manaton road some idiots have been riding off road and a steep loop has been eroded into the hillside adjoining the road. Riding such a track may be fun but it is deplorable behaviour that I would hope no TRF member would condone as it undermines th...
