Dyfi Enduro 2014 photos and video

Yet another epic year of the Howies Dyfi enduro mountain bike event which is now more of a festival than a cycle event. Now running for about 14 years, give or take a year. The Machynlleth comedy festival is also held over the same bank holiday weekend, giving the whole town a festival feel.

Yet again the valley was blessed with good weather for the event, thousands of people and lots of fun things to do.

The enduro itself had over a thousand riders this year and the course was as hardcore as ever with killer climbs, and as usual some seriously technical steep down hills. (we'd expect no less.)

For the first time in 6 or is it 7 years I didn't ride, but took to the hills to enjoy the vibes and get some photos and footage of the riders; before returning to the excellent 'Twisted Crank' party tent and dancing the night away with a couple or three ;-)  fine ales.

Here's a link to some photos, and a little video made up of one of the more technical sections.

Dyfi enduro photos 2014, (World cup, Caban Coch, Dickos) I havn't had time to edit the pictures but if you spot yourself, feel free to download and tweak them yourself.



Last but not least here a short video of some footage from the Caban Coch section, (the one before the world cup), its a great techy trail and lets those that have never ridden the Dyfi see just how technical a ride it is...
