The Soggy Bottom series is back after a two year gap with a new format and new sponsors but the same classic venue of Newnham Park.
With the series starting earlier in the year, we are hoping for some decent weather to showcase all the trail features that have made Newnham Park such a popular venue over the decades. Expect some lung busting climbing and some technical challenges, but most of all expect a fun mountain bike weekend in glorious Devon.
Our two-day format means that now you'll be able to camp over in the park on Saturday night and keep the social side of racing going for more than an adrenaline fuelled chat in the car park. Now it'll be a beer-fuelled ramble by the camp fire.
