Been talked into doing this as part of a team. What's it like and will it be blimming cold?? I've never ridden around the area, but I am expecting it to be ace.
I've 24 hour soloed 3 times now so the race bit isn't the problem. It's the staying warm and motivated bits inbetween that worry me!!
Do Strathpuffer first - then Relentless seems a lot less daunting 😉
More usefully (maybe) - I've done relentless a few times - some random musings...
It's varied from a stunning sunny day and starry night to pissing rain for 24h. As with anywhere in the UK, it's variable. It's not been too cold on any of the occasions - positive single figures degC so when dry, very comfortable. In the wet - minging! You're unlikely to see snow.
The Nevis range cafe stays open all night so you've got a warm place to grab a coffee if that's tempting.
Camping is very limited if that's what you're planning. You'll likely be pitching in the car park (gravelly surface) so plan accordingly.
Darkness - not puffer levels of dark - but you're going to be using lights (and head torch off the bike) for a good chunk of the night. That's probably the hardest bit for me.
Puffer is next on the hit list!!
We will be camping and also have a team gazebo. Hmmm this may cause issues 😀
