Reason being I will be hitting the BBB on the way back from France and it looks like I will only have my road bike and as good as I (think I) am I am not sure slick 23mm tryres will cut around the XC course.

So can anyone lend me one? will anyone have a spare kicking around or does anyone know of places to hire one.? I will pay in beer if need be. 😀

I will be taking mine so you can have a Scott Strike, 96ers fixie or SS, Jump Bike, ladies shopper bike (Wife's) and maybe a BMX. Just borrow which ever is lieing around when you need a bike and drop it back to the bar when you don't need it.

Avon Tyrrell also have a hire fleet if you book in advance I think.

Take the 96er. I've seen the bits if metal fling off the Scott as it grinds and clanks down the trail! Xxx
Wife and I are both taking our full sous & ss bikes do if you're stuck come & find me. Will be camping in a bright red vw t5.

Road bike is perfect for the inappropriate bike race 🙂

DexB - I am not sure he could handle the "Red Beast"

Actually I had forgotten about that, it may well be there too.
