ABOUT THE DAY

Join us for morning coffee, breakfast and networking at Harrogate’s luxury farm shop, Weetons. We’ll then head into the Yorkshire countryside. Designed to be inclusive and enjoyable for a range of abilities, we’ve got two fully supported social rides, with riding groups based on preferred pace and route options of 35 miles or 50 miles.

We’ll stop en route to refuel with a great cyclists cafe stop. We’ll have the expert support of the Struggle Events team, making us feel like pros for the day. Back at Weetons we’ll enjoy a post-ride Yorkshire buffet in the sunshine and share stories of our day.

SPECIAL GUESTS

We’ll be joined both on and off the bike by fellow supporters and ambassadors Lizzie Deignan and Flora Perkins.

RIDER SUPPORT

Our expert mechanic will be on hand for pre-ride bike checks to assist with any minor mechanicals before you set out on the route.

We'll set off in small groups relevant to pace with expert rider leaders managing the speed and guiding the way, so that you can enjoy riding with other like-minded riders of similar ability. 

We'll be supported by a pro mechanic and chaperoned by a support car carrying spares, tools, snacks and water.

ROUTES

We have two great routes to choose from. There's groups for varying abilities, everyone is welcome. The 50 mile has a challenge climb up the scenic ascent of Dallowgill Moor. Riders can test their fitness before we regroup and head back to base together. Please check out the routes below:
