Coming Soon: Reigate Trail Ride
Trail Break's Southern Trail Ride series comes to Reigate on Saturday 3rd July, for a great set of rides in the North Downs
The route has been put together by Redhill CC, using their local knowledge to good effect. You'll gain height early and quickly as you escape the town on Reigate Hill, and the enjoy the payback for your labours for almost the next half of the ride. Miles of snaking singletrack high on the Downs ridge leads you to some awesome descending that eventually spits you out at the foot of Box Hill, by which time you'll have forgotten what climbing feels like! Box Hill will provide a sharp reminder, but once you're up high, the pattern repeats and you have plenty of gravitational pull to look forward to, including a scorching return down Reigate Hill off road before you roll back into the finish.
And you'll get all the support from the people who invented the Trail Ride format, including full and comprehensive signing of all routes, route map, free SIS energy drink, electronic rider timing, tail end support riders and full catering at the event base.
With this long overdue summer baking the trails to dusty perfection, it's a ride not to miss! You can book online until 5pm on Thursday at www.trailbreak.co.uk and save £2 on your entry fee, or you can sign up at registration on the day. Check the website for full details or call 0118 988 6041.
