An annual mountain biking event, now in its 23rd year, over a 27 mile way-marked course with over 4000 feet of ascent, with two thirds off-road and the rest on country roads.

Set in the beautiful Calder Valley, the route runs over tracks and lanes across the surrounding moors with stunning views of the area. There are, however, some steep ascents and descents as the route takes you from moor top to moor top in these high Pennine valleys.

The route is fully signed, gates and other obstacles are manned by event marshals, and if you find it impossible to continue, we will transport you back to the HQ. Full route information and maps can be found on our website.

New for this year - a shorter route of 13 miles with just 1800 feet of ascent/descent for those not up to the full route.

Safety is covered by an experienced team with First Aiders and radio communications by Calderdale Raynet.
