Djouce Trail Challenge, Djouce Woods, Co. Wicklow – Sun 11th Nov 2007

A short event, 18km on Djouce woods best singletracks. More of a leisure event than a race, but as I know the trails so well, I could not miss the opportunity to hit them at full pace. As the elites were ‘encouraged’ not to start, I had few challengers. Got the hole shot into the first singletrack and led the 100 riders from there, finishing over 2 minutes ahead of 2nd place super junior, Paul ??.

The course was incredible, 100% dry (a rarity at anytime of the year), all classic singletrack descending with some new features added in. Well done to Robin and all Team WORC for putting on an excellent event. Robin wants to grow the event and double the size of the route, and hopefully the entry.

Well done to all the other finishers too.
