maybe only 400k but risk of sudden death, altitude sickness and the chance to mountain bike in the himalayas has got to be good!!

Has anyone got experience of this tyre ?? Thinking of using it on this years TD.  Let me know your thoughts people 

Just watched a program about a 400 mile stage race in Nepal called the Yak Attack .....Defo one for the race calendar and one for the bucket list 

  With all the fuss about bears ( we all know u americans love winding us Brits up ) I've just completed my research and I've come to the conclusion that bears arnt really a problem…………. Friendly Bear Waves to People - YouTube

Cheers, will sit down and have a good old think and try and get it all done in one go..... i will get back to you

Hi, Being a brit i would like some advice on how u go about getting from Antelope Wells to the nearest airport and would be interested to hear from other brits on how they managed to get home i.e. flights- did u book a return ticket when you flew to calgary ? and got an internal flight from new mexico back to calgary ? Any help would be great 

Hi Everyone,

I'm planning on riding the divide in June 2014, would be interested in hearing from other Brits preparing for the race.......setups, training etc.  I'm on the South Downs Way most weekends and it would be good to find another fool with the same aspirations                                                                                                             

Hi, very interested in your post... i also want to do the route but not at race pace, I'm looking at 30-37 days and my start date is flexible.
I'm from the UK and work as a mechanic for the British Army and am also one of the Battalion's mountain bike instructors, for me this would be a trip of a lifetime. Message me if your interested. Thanks Terry.

And if any other riders are interested in this please let me know ..... july 2014 flexible on dates.

Just updating the above post and im also now able to do it June/July, would be great if there was a few of us !
