Mountain Bike Racing is increasing in popularity again after a number of years in the doldrums. In this series we are not going to focus on the famous riders, the Elite of the sport. Instead we are going to follow the unsung heroes, the uncelebrated masses that make up the vast majority of riders and racers. We will be finding out what they do, why they do it, how they balance everyday commitments with racing. Welcome to the world of racing from the perspective of average riders like you and me.

My Giant XTC, it weights less than 8000 grams, has beautiful Rock Shox Sids, powerful V - Brakes (who needs disc's?) and my favourite Extralite crankset. It rides like a dream and is now my ultimate bike. I have been slowly building it for about 6 months now, the frame looks amazing. This really is my dream bike.
