The Whyte Winter Series goes from strength to strength with a full field of 600 riders braving the wind and rain of Thetford Forest last weekend to race.
 
Categories of two and four hour endurance races for men, women (and two hour juniors)are topped off with a two-lap fun ride for the rest of the field.
 
Thetford Forest – for the main – is pancake flat but the race courses feature a heady mix of bombholes, singletrack and fire roads – something to suit all tastes in the saddle.
 
Organisers Paul Hore and Frank Jaworski have been running the Winter series in conjunction with their summer event and the massively popular Dusk Til Dawn for several years.
 
The entries are capped at 600 per race and if you want to enter the next round on Sunday, December 6th in Norfolk, go to www.thetfordmtbracing.com. To check results for the last round click on www.timelaps.co,uk
