All multi stage races seem to be reserved for teams of two. Wondered if there aren't more people like me that would love to take part in some, or most of these races but can not due to the lack of partners. Either organisers could create a seperate catagory or perhaps organise a race for individuals only. I might be wrong but I find the advent of sponsored teams in the MTB world totally contrary to the whole spirit of MTB, When you see road racing peleton tactics dominating technical and individual skills, the MTB has lost the plot. It only becomes a road race played out on a gravel road. A case of the big money moves in and the soul moves out.
