A savage self-supported bikepacking race: roughly 500km and around 10,000m of climbing across the Pennines, Yorkshire Dales and high moor. No support, no prizes, no markings, just a GPX file and a dot on a map.
The route
A ~500km self-navigated off-road loop out through the Yorkshire Dales, over exposed high Pennine moor and back via gravel and quiet lanes, with around 10,000m of climbing. Roughly 45% rocky bridleway and byway, 35% moorland doubletrack, 20% lanes.
Late-May, Yorkshire
Highs around 16°C and lows around 7°C, but it has dropped to 1°C. Rain on 47% of days.
