general race stuff in the bristol area

Hello all,
(not sure if this is the right place to ask, just searched for mtb/bristol and found this place, sorry if its not suitable for here etc)

I'm not familiar with mtb racing in Bristol and wondered if there were any large events, I think I read something about an endurance event at Ashton Court? But can't remember the details. I'd like to try a 12 hour endurance event and see how it felt. Anyone into that sort of stuff? Does the Bristol MTB club do stuff like that?

Is there a race scene thats open to beginners (not a new rider, but new to racing etc) Friendly people/clubs? Opinions or whatever would really be appreciated.

Re: general race stuff in the bristol area

cool, 2 months or so to get in shape for a 12 hour event. Anyone got any first time experiences or advice? (riding solo)

Also, is anyone here or in the mtb club considering doing this? (again sry if not asked in the right place etc)
