It's a long weekend of mountain bike gloriousness, and the dates for 09 have now been set. Hooray for the Queen as she lends her birthday to the fine folk in Melrose who are planning hard for a fantastic weekend of trails, campfire fun, great food and the relaxed atmosphere this town is known for. They're a friendly mob and know how to throw a great party.

While you're there, drop in and say g'day to Alistair and Richard in Over the Edge Sports, the bike shop in town, and Pip next door in the chocolate, wool & gifty-things section!
