Would love to go and see this one day. From what i gather as well as the factory efforts, a fair few turn up in a van and just do it for the hell of it.

The official Pikes Peak twitter page has loads of great photos and videos. Such an array of vehicles of all types. Looks amazing.

Lol.. I was just thinking that a mutly would be the perfect tool for that job.

The Multi held the bike course record from 2012-2017. So definitely a great bike for it. Those 2018 1260cc Multi setups look awesome!

I like the fact that the best car for the mountain is some tricked-out course-specific one-off....the best bike is one off a dealer lot.

The "Everyman Race".... sort of.

Is it on the telly?

ESPN are filming it for showing at later dates...by category, apparently.

I didn't realise there was a class for big-rigs!!
