UPM Tilhill will hold its 2011 Forest Products Mountain Bike Challenge on June 24 at Coed Llandegla.

The event will still be a hard challenge for most but the intention is to introduce a softer version to run at the same time to encourage people who may have been put off by the fear they had to ride for 2½ hours. And next year there will be fewer riders in each team.
