  • Rich Payne is in Scotland to take on one of the world’s hardest 24hr mountain bike races: the Strathpuffer! 17hrs of darkness, snow, rain, cold & misery amidst the harsh & wild Scottish landscape! Due to its conditions, the event is a known bike killer so it's the perfect race environment to push Rich to the limits of human & mechanical endurance!

    Great job Rich, congratulations on a very respectable ride Sir! It was a pleasure to watch your experience even though you were miserable. Endurance racing is a bit of a staple here in Ogden Utah. Many world class athletes live and train here for some of the toughest races in the world. I wonder how the Strathpuffer would compare to what I consider the toughest MTB race in the world, La Ruta de los Conquistadores. This race is the bench mark for endurance MTB racing. It would be wonderful if you could do a story about La Ruta de los Conquistadores and Roman Urbina, a living Legend! Well good Sir, Cheers! - M

    Epic man, well done.
    I appreciate mtb’ing with mud guards is not cool ( to some) but I am struggling with why you carry all that dirt around with you which is surely affecting your body temps.
    Brutal ride!

      Surely the dirt would act as an insulator. As for mudguards not being cool, MTBers are naturally cool, so…

      Mudguards are additional failure points, which is why no racers (either on road or off) use them. They can clog up with mud and stones, sticks can get caught in the stays, or they can get rattled loose and foul the wheels.

    Mental. Truly mental.
    You can tell he’s definitely cooked, and really wanted to call it quits, but his determination, and positivity’s keeping his fire and will alive. And not to mention also having to stay professional for this documentary.
    Absolute masterclass

    Great job on the race! The 6am period was the worst. All of the camps went dark, and few riders were out. It felt eerie and disheartening on the track.
