Two Northern Ireland mountainbikers are going to have to work together... even if it kills them. Tango & Cash take on the Transalp Challenge 2006 - 400 miles and 65,000 vertical climbing feet, from Germany to Italy. How hard can it be?...

Sooooeeeeee!!
I am sure Saint Patrick didn't know it at the time, but when he tended pigs on the lower slopes of Slemish in the 6th Century, he was a true pioneer. Little did he know that 1,500 years later, Tango & Cash would be manhandling their own brutish MTB hogs up it, after 6.0 hrs of furious pedalling in the Antrim Hills. Squeal like a piggy!!
Tango and Cash are two '30-something' Antrim-based weekend warriors. Having dabbled in various forms of physical recreation since the 1780's, the two brave chaps signed up for the Transalp Challenge 2006, the world's toughest mountain-bike race. The rest is history...
