Scott i hope you dont mind me suggesting that you get your head checked out asap.

12 hours in a forest in the dark, where several sections of the single track are just wide enough to fit your bars through.

:D :lol: Hehe!

Yeah, good luck mate! I went on a night ride last night - doing 25mph in pitch black is quite a rush on open roads, let alone thrashing through forest :shock:

My brother Scott raced this event. He entered solo for his first ever 12 hour night race. Wow. Not to mention his 2nd race ever. The little fellow raced his heart out and didn't stop for the whole duration. He clocked up 16 laps of a 9 mile off-road loop around bedgbury. After 152 miles countless red bulls and energy gels later he emerged from the darkness as solo winner but even better overall race winner. He gained 2 laps of the 9 mile loop advantage over the next rider. Teams of up to four couldn’t touch him. He raised £280 for the British heart foundation which organised the event. Everybody who sponsored him including me are massively impressed. Well done bro. :D :D :D

Well done Scott, that is fantastic. 12 hours without stopping is hard enough, let alone at night and off road. I bet he will sleep for a week now, or when the Red Bull has worn off.

:shock: Awesome result Mr Webb the younger! Sounds like one mighty challenge - and a mighty win! 8)

Question is; do you recommend it? :P
