Deeside Night Race Series - Race #2 - Tarland Trails
Race #2 of the Deeside Night Race Series delivered everything you want from a winter night race. Three loops of Tarland Trails brought steep climbs, fast bermed descents and relentless turns, all raced under head torch alone. With just five seconds separating first and second, it was a flat-out, high-intensity battle that proved the series is very much heating up — even in the dark.

On Saturday we turned one! It’s really hard to sum up the last year, it’s been a bit of a blur, but we’re really proud of what we’ve built and know that we couldn’t have done it without those closest to us.
