Cycling not-newbie Nick Craig is back in 2025 for his 26th 3 Peaks Cyclo-cross. A rider who rode the event from the age of 16 and won ‘to order’ in 1991 just before departing to the MTB worlds took a long break from the race, and has some amazing tales of his returning to the event spurred on by tasty wind-ups on the fell running forums, and a classic tale of Fred Salmon’s keeping his promise to bare all if Nick won. A total joy of a chat – and a little bit of a long one, sorry!
