Mega Avalaugh 2103
Mega Avalaugh is an event organised by Peter Long Socks of the Aberdare Mountain Bike group based in South Wales. This event was on the 15/12/2013 in aid of raising funds for the Philippino disaster hit by the typhoon earlier this year.
I heard about this event the day before and being such a worthy cause it was hard to pass up.
The group met in Aberdare Country Park at 10am Sunday morning, and being true to the South Wales weather it bucketed down, the lads got to tuning up their rigs in the carpark and put in a few warm up laps before heading to the mountain.
Peter would like to thank the members for their support and is looking forward to bigger and better things in 2014. He also added that Mega Avalaugh 2014 is going to be held in one of the Welsh Bikeparks and is hoping to attract riders to this charity event.

Got to love how the teenager in all blue on the little blue and red bike looks just about the perfect size for such a bike. I wonder if he was the winner in having the unfair advantage by being so small? Looked a cracking laugh though. :-)

I could see this being a bigger event next year. Raising money for a good cause and having a laugh at the same time, if it gets publicity I can see it being a good turn out next year

Yeah it needs a little publicity to get of the ground of a good cause such as it is
