Trail Bike of the Year "The mtb world's no.1 test"


Back in May 2008, mbr magazine did their Trail Bike of the Year test and included bikes from Cannondale, Commencal, Tomac, Cube etc. Where did the experts choose to go to test these bikes? Their regular test track, Afan Valley, now assuming that you test the ultimate trail bikes on the ultimate trails, we are going to spend the weekend in Feb riding some of the ultimate trails in the UK.

Despite Neils unfortunate absence we appear to be back up to full strength with the late recruitment of Dave (deposit pending), Carbonpaul is staying with family, so that leaves five of us in the house, which coincidentally is the same place the mbr testers stayed during their Trail Bike of the Year test, TY Afan http://www.ty-afan.co.uk/ (following a familiar theme!).

Look forward to seeing most of you out on the bikes before the trip.


Oh did I mention that my new bike scored 10/10 in the test to become 2008 Ultimate Trail Bike!!!!!!


Happy riding.
