The South Downs Double is one of the best known off-road endurance mountain bike challenges in the UK, a demanding challenge at the best of times, 200 miles and 7743 metres of climb, but Matt decided to tackle it during a windy, muddy February. 

Congratulations from all here at TORQ HQ to Matt on achieving his record, 22 hours, 10 minutes and 50 seconds
