The Mont 24hr is a 24-hour mountain bike race around a 19 kilometre track in relay format of four people.
With a total of 3,000 competitors and 800 on the track at a time, it ran from 12pm on Saturday through the cold night to 12pm Sunday. Adam Wade, Scott Chesworth, Glenn Howe and Danny Flanery competed as Bubracing and finished with 20 laps, while Graham Martin-Dye, Adam Walsh, Matthew Schofield and Phil Lindsell raced as The Harden Hound Dogs ending up slightly lower on 18 laps.
Out of the two teams, Scott Chesworth took out the fastest lap of 1min 01.35secs with Adam Wade a very close second at only 0.07secs behind.
It was a very good effort by all men and a special thank you goes to Gerard Hines and Delta Agribusiness for sponsoring the two teams.
Pictured standing behind their bikes, above, are Danny Flanery, Scott Chesworth, Phil Lindsell, Graham Martin-Dye, Matthew Schofield, Adam Wade and Glenn Howe.
