The weary Mencap’s Extreme Racing Team has just finished the Marathon des Sables (MDS)– the legendary, multi-stage Sahara desert ultra-marathon covering 5.5 marathons (over 240 km) in six days. Mencap’s the leading UK charity for people with a learning disability. The team all wore RailRiders AdventureTops during the race, braving heat, sandstorms, and rationed water. The breathable, lightweight and sun-protecting AdventureTops are similar to the RailRiders Eco-Mesh shirts that first started showing up on MDS racers’ backs in the late 90s– and both of their popularity has only increased since then.
