Team KT18

Descending technical single track at speed is tough for most but when only having one arm it proves a little more challenging. Especially when feathering both front and rear brakes through one hand independently

A bespoke prosthetic to help control the bike and some cleaver but simple brake lever positioning by meant disability was never a limiting factor and opened up the world of possibilities

Fuelling the machine ⛽️

Nutrition was definitely one of our biggest concerns when taking on the 8 days of tough racing in the

We’ve both done our far share of endurance events and sometimes even after one day you can experience some pretty horrific side effects to certain sports nutrition products

Clean and natural sports nutrition is definitely a must and having some variation with flavours to prevent your taste buds going on strike

provided us with their wide range of new products giving us huge confidence that we’d be fuelling sufficiently day after day. Definitely try out their pineapple & coconut energy drink 🤤 A firm favourite from us 👍🏻

We could have eaten bars for days (we did for 9 constantly). Natural ingredients and a huge range of flavours meant every day was a different selection
