The course

One lap, on repeat

A lapped course from Kielder Campsite, 10.5km with 350m of ascent, mixing long forest-track drags with red and black-graded singletrack. You repeat it solo, in a pair, or in a quad team for the full day. Every team gets a hard standing pitch trackside.

Intervals.icu

What the Chiller throws at you

Typical sessions

Around 14 of the twenty-four hours ridden in the dark, on red and black-graded singletrack.

Cold, often wet, exposed conditions in Kielder Forest in late October.

Technical trail features that stay demanding when you are deep into the night.

Climbing that repeats every lap, 350m at a time, with no real flat to recover on.

What your weeks look like

Typical sessions

Tired skills rides: two to three hours steady, then straight onto technical trail with your concentration already low.

Weekly night rides progressing onto red-graded singletrack in the dark over four to six weeks.

Hill repeats on rough terrain, four to eight efforts of five to ten minutes, plus fireroad sweet-spot blocks.

A day-into-night race simulation of six to ten hours, backed by back-to-back long weekend rides for durability.
