Chain Reaction Cycles NPS Round 6 The Final!

Last editted Oct 17, 2007 at 16:34
Innerleithen, Scotland on Saturday and Sunday the 13th and 14th of October 2007.

Innerleithen, normally a quiet Scottish Borders town, is often rudely awakened each year by the downhill circus making a visit. This year, due to the slightly damp weather that we got around the time there should have been some sunbathing being done, Rugog was unfortunately postponed. If Wales is wet at the best of times, then in October you would need a snorkel to find the track. With that in mind, using Innerleithen as a replacement was definitely a sensible choice. We may have already dropped in for Round 1 but with so many tracks on offer, creating something with a different feel wasn’t going to be a problem. If you’re reading this from a computer screen several thousand kilometers away then detailed track descriptions aren’t really going to mean anything but suffice to say, it was a mixture of old technical classics and wide open, flat out new era, all with a few little twists to keep the locals on their toes.
