Wow, I’ve just realised I’m supposed to be riding in a Mountain Bike ‘Race’ at the weekend – That came around sooner than I was expecting. It’s the Dyfi Enduro Winter Warm Up which is a new event for 2011. It’s a “mini-enduro”, in essence, a lower mileage and a compact version of the proper Dyfi Enduro which is held in May.<\/p>\n

From what I’ve heard it is going to be laps of the same route, allowing people to do either a 12 mile, 20 mile or 28 mile route. I know that doesn’t add up, but it does if you figure in a little ride from the start at Corris Craft centre to the main lap and then back again at the end. From my calculations I make that likely to be a start at the Corris Craft centre, 2 miles to the main trail, then an 8 mile lap through the trails in the southern part of the Dyfi Forest followed by 2 miles back to the Corris Craft Centre.<\/p>\n

I am of course making all of this up, but that would make a distance of 12 miles for those who do one lap, 20 miles for those doing 2 laps and 28 for those doing 3. I’ll be aiming for 3 laps, but at a nice steady pace as if I was on a normal end of month ride.<\/p>\n

It should be fun and a good excuse to get out and ride with a big group of people early in the season. I’ve only been on my bike a couple of times since Christmas though so no doubt it will hurt!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
