Every year the users of this site get to vote on the stuff they like and places they’ve ridden in the past twelve months. We ride a lot of different places and a few of the guys are compulsive kit purchasers, so it’s always interesting to see how it all pans out. This year was great as we had the highest number of voters ever

The Spirit of Sussex-MTB:
This is always a hotly contested category and this year was no exception! There was only one vote between first and second! However Pete came out the winner and rightly so. His cheery disposition and enthusiasm whatever the weather are an inspiration to all. He falls off, he gets up and smiles and pedals off (most of the time). So I think he’s a fitting winner. Well done Pete…….
3rd Jimbo / Hoops
2nd Uncle Phil
1st Pete
