Event Summary

Event Overview

As with all our events, the ride is staffed by volunteers and all proceeds are distributed to local charities  

The 100 mile route heads North through the beautiful area known as The Forrest of Bowland  to Slaidburn where it goes across the Cross O’Greet and on to Hornby where the first feed station is. At this point the 100km route continues to Caton while the 100 mile heads to Borwick and on to Sizergh castle. The next feed station with toilets is at 51 miles in the village of Levens returning via Arnside and Carnforth and hitting the Hornby feed station again and heading West along the 100k route on through Quernmore and Scorton back to Longridge 

The Short route is a little tougher this year, turning off the main route just before Dunsop Bridge where it will have its own feed station then on through the famous Trough of Bowland turning at Marsaw and rejoining the main route just near Scorton. 

The scenery and views on these quiet roads are incredible and worth the ride just in themselves, so challenge yourself and your friends to experience them.
