What Mountain Bike Magazine had
this to say:"Cara and I had originally planned
too ride the route unsupported. In the end we went with Macs
Adventure and loved every second of it. Having
a a change of clothes ferried from one hostel or B&B to the
next was nothing short of luxurious. Superb picnic lunches were
a real treat, and it was great not to have to scrabble around
with a bunch of soggy OS maps when it poured down. As the riding
was so good it also meant we could make the most of
the trails without a heavy backpack weighing us down. The Atmosphere
at Macs Adventure was superb; organised but laid back,
like we were with a bunch of mates." What Mountain
