Five Cupcakes

The insanity of it all. 24 Hours of Adrenalin. Teams of five, in a relay format, lap around an 18km mountain bike course - the team with the most laps (in the fastest time) over 24 hours wins! Needless to say - we didn't!

The uphills were steep and narrow and riddled with roots and rocks, the downhills were steep and narrow and riddled with roots and rocks, the flat bits were sadly lacking. Exhausted going up, terrified going down. There were trees and bumps and other riders and, every now and again, flash, a motion sensor camera then more bumpy bits and then, it was even bumpier and just for some comic relief, really, really bumpy and between trees just wide enough for handlebars and down a 20% grade along the edge of a ravine. And you think I am kidding!

Oh, and add to this the frequent bear sightings on the trail - just a mama grizzly and her cub - no real danger there!

But wasn't it fun! Our jerseys, thanks to Crave Cupcakes, were the talk of the event.
