Neil de ste Croix and Laurie Orchard. both former Bermuda national triathlon champions, swap their road bikes for mountain bikes and running trails as they take on the XTerra Series Costa Rica this Sunday 29th March.

Neil is known in Bermuda as one of the island’s leading mountain

bikers so he will be hoping to use that and his strong running ability to his advantage.

Laurie is fairly new to mountain biking but is known for her strong swim and determination.

Unfortunately there is a low turn out in Neil’s age group ( just one other entrant) whilst Laurie will be the sole entrant in her age group.
