Today we (Sean & Stu) headed back to Lee Quarry to get one last ride in before the race on Saturday. We shot up the fire road to the start of the quarry with no bother as it was all compact snow and no ice. But once we got to the start the snow was stupidly deep, so we pushed on hoping it would be better further on the track. But no, it was one long push round with snow up to our knees in places! Might sound like a rubbish ride, but turned out to be a good laugh, some parts we could ride, but was a rare. It was a good test for our kits tho and the scenary was amazing. After the ride/push and messing with icicles, we headed back down and got the stove on for a nice hot brew and a sandwhich. Overall a good day out, this week is going to be taken up with work for four days and preparing bikes, kit and food inbetween so we are ready to roll come Friday.
