This has got to be the best race of the year so far...
The Welsh Champs AND the Hardtail Champs running head to head at the AMAZING Mynydd Du. It's going to be sooooo good.
Check out the photo above of the covetted hardtail champs denim beater, awarded to the UK's fastest hardtail racer. Nathan Ball took her home last year at Rheola but he's out with an injury so it's open to anyone. Judging by the pace Lee H was putting down at Bala I reckon my money might be on him!
