TYPE OF RIDE: Point to Point, off road ride.
DIFFICULTY RATING: Extreme for the whole distance, but there are half-distance options, suitable for intermediate riders.
WHERE: Windsor (Great Park) to Bath city.

DISTANCE(S): 100 or 50 miles.
WHY DO THE RIDE: This is the first time its ever been run and it’s going to be epic. It’s virtually the width of the country. It is an awesome challenge that would not normally be possible to complete in a day without the signing, support and security that the event will provide.
WHAT BIKE: A hardtail (front suspension only) will be suitable for this event, but we’d recommend a full suspension bike (especially if doing the whole distance), as it is a long bumpy day in the saddle, so the comfort and forgiveness of a bouncy back end will come into its own towards the end of the ride, as your legs tire. It can be (and I have) done on a Cyclocross bike if you wish though, as although uncomfortable it will be fast.
WHAT TYRES: Fit some all round tyres as the terrain changes quite a lot through the ride. Don’t go too knobbly, but make sure you have some decent tread.
