Guisborough Woods

Two days after the Festive Feeding Frenzy we burned most of the calories off at the Guisborough Woods race. Being a two lap race we had the pleasure of repeating the same gruelling climb twice, on the second bigger lap the race went beyond the shelter of the forest onto the open Moor, where we were assaulted by a ferocious head wind which made forward progress quite difficult, once back into the woods the wind subsided and we could enjoy the long descent to the finish.
Our men claimed the team prize, and good to see a new face, Matthew Page on the fells.
