Just returned home from a weekend in Somerset for the Quantock Quake - wow, what a fantastic event. The route was stunning, with a fabulous mix of terrain - lovely fast downhills, technical sections, long climbs for awesome views, and the most helpful and friendly marshals and event organisers you will ever meet. Thanks to Dan and the team, we had a blast, and can’t wait for next year! Andy L
