The Minley Mix Up. So I and no doubt many other riders have ridden Minley for over 10 years including every Torq in Your Sleep and thought we had exhausted every course permutation. But somehow the trail team put together a 5 1/2 mile lap that totally switched up all the trails, what an amazing effort! Ground conditions too made for exceptionally good going and that's probably why 100's of competitors more used to horrible sticky mud made descended on the second Brass Monkey. Be rest assured Round 3 on the 28th January at Minley will be another completely different course. Let's hope for kind conditions again, albeit a bit brisk with the windchill.
Well done to everyone who competed. You can view your lap times via the link above and Kevin Sheldrake's photographs will no doubt be available soon. Thanks to all our sponsors for providing a huge prize haul and we look forward to the final series podium presentations as Round 3. Series points from Round 2 will be published later this week.
