Mac Avalanche 2026 Round Up

Among the 200 riders taking part in the mass start event at the Nevis Range, Fort William, we had two crazy riders from Patina.

Thomas and Neil decided to join the NO COAT CLUB. It is a tough climb up to the start gate, and being extremely exposed to the highlands' weather conditions chilled the two riders to the bone. However, as soon as that crazy snow section was over and it was time for the long slog down Blue Doon they were both thankful.
