2007 Sutherland Raid
There were challenging cross-country routes, world-class MTB routes on the slopes of Ben Bhraggie, relays and time trials with outstanding demonstrations of skill and ability. The Raid also included the Highlands Schools championships with fantastic enthusiasm from all the youngsters from local schools who took part. Trials riders Duncan Shaw and Ben Travis enthralled the spectators with outstanding demonstrations of skill and ability, while negotiating 10 feet high hay bale platforms, balancing on scaffold bars and tree trunks, showing amazing control and technique. In the evening, Golspie rocked to the sound of class acts, including ‘Make Model’ and ‘Edgar Prais’ up and coming young bands that have played at Isle of Skye Music Festival and T in the Park respectively.
