It is the perfect event for anyone looking for an off-road, traffic-free gravel challenge in the Lake District.
THE EVENTS ARE NOT RACES:
The Family and Fun courses are an opportunity to get started with gravel riding, whilst the Challenge Event is for fitter riders or those with some gravel or off-road experience.
All courses are based around the Forestry England site of Grizedale Forest which has a full range of facilities. You will find parking, toilets and, of course, a cafe for that all important post-ride coffee and cake.
