Mountain Mayhem

Mountain madness indeed - mountain biking at Eastnor Castle. Courtesy of Mountain Mayhem

when:Jun 2010 (annual)
where:Eastnor Castle
cost:Free to spectate

Defying gravity and dense terrain between the Cotswolds and the Welsh Marches, mountain bikers descend once again on Eastnor Castle Deer Park for Mountain Mayhem. The centrepiece of the weekend is the world's biggest 24-hour mountain biking festival.

With the 2500 competitor places for 2009 long since snapped up, you can still be one of the 10,000 expected spectators for this festival of adrenalin, endurance and sheer pedal power. Take your tent and sleep under the stars free for the whole weekend.
