Had a bad ride yesterday - we started in H as we are not racers. The mud was treacherous, descents had to be approached with care - the pass was slippery and pushing or carrying your bike for 1.2km was exhausting. By the time we reached the good single track, we were too tired to enjoy it! After two falls and the hammering our bikes took from the mud we decided to withdraw. Will try again next year if it doesn't rain!!
