WHAT TO EXPECT

Join us pre-ride for morning coffee and networking. Our expert mechanic will be on hand to assist with any minor mechanicals before you set out on the route. We'll then set off in small groups (with allocated group leaders), so that you can enjoy riding with other like-minded riders. 

We'll stop en route to refuel at our very own Feed Station. We'll then grab some additional snacks, fill our pockets with sports nutrition and refill our water bottles ready to take on the second half of the ride.  

After the ride we'll continue networking over afternoon tea back at Crimple Hall.

Frequently Asked Questions

Event Info

What support is on the route?

Our roving mechanics are on hand to get you back on the route should you have an issue. We do however recommend everyone knows how to repair a puncture and come equipt with the tools and spares to do so. We also have marshals throughout the route, roving medical support and well-stocked feed stops and a broomwagon.

How fit do I need to be?

Struggle Dales is achieveable for any ambitious road cyclist. That said, it requires prior training and preparation. With sensible pacing, optimal fuelling, proper preparation and plenty of courage, its a challenging goal worthy of the hard work. 

What are the cut off times?

There are cut off times but these are very generous to encourage everyone to make it around the route. We suggest steadier riders sign-on the day before and start as early as possible.

What is at the start/finish?

There is ample free parking at the start and finish and toilet facilities. There is a coffee van serving up a pre-ride caffeine kick and we have post ride nosh and beers at the finish. There is no running water or showers, so please come with your water bottles pre-filled. 

Where can I stay?

The start/finish is just a few miles from Harrogate Town Centre, where there is a host of hotels and B&Bs to suit all budgets. I'm afraid there is no camping/campervans allowed to stay overnight at the Army Foundation College. 

Cancellation/Defers

Can I cancel my entry?

I'm afraid we cannot cancel your place if you have entered. You can however transfer or defer your place. See below...
