“Further is a great event that Camille pours his heart into. If you can put up with the tarmac, the off road sectors are a real reward. It is a solid event, but by no means impossible, so don’t be put off by what you hear from some. It’s a good challenge, and after all, that’s why we do this.”

“To succeed at Further you need to be part road cyclist, part mountainbiker, part hiker, part fell runner, mostly belligerent, an expert strategist and with a broad vocabulary of swear words. being an olympian might also help. or you can just do your best and see what happens”

“There were times when I wondered whether Further had designed the course as an elaborate and cruel experiment in performance art...
but ultimately it was the most beautiful, challenging, and happy experience I’ve ever had on a bike”

“The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.”
