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?...

Uphill Gardening
Donegore Hill, home to Northern Ireland's leading garden centre, remains our regular stomping ground for the mid-week blasts. The beauty of it lies in the variety; you can go up or down, do the south side (Donegore Hill) or the west side (Ballysavage Road), and it is your own personal choice whether to use the modern metric or traditional imperial measurement for calculating height climbed. No end to the excitement. Transalp Challenge here we come!
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...
