mountain bike world cup

Living in the highlands has opened up lots of opportunities there is lots to do on our doorstep.
Coastal walks,hill walks climbing,kayaking,canoeing,skiing to name but a few.
There is always something going on an event or festival to attend.
So with a mountain bike mad son and a world cup event on our doorstep we had to go.
Also the icing on the cake was the olympic torch dropped by too.
Loved the event the horns and cow bells and cheers and the talent was amazing,
competitors were throwing themselves off jumps and  rocks and racing
downhill at breakneck speed in the hope of being the world champion.
Much to my surprise I loved it :-)
