Mountain bikers, listen up. If you're looking to step up your riding this year then why not give yourself something to aim for? The teams at Rat Race and BikeRadar are here to help with an altogether unique challenge – the UK's only mountain bike expedition event.
The Crossing is a 190-mile (310km) coast-to-coast journey from the Cumbrian coast to Scarborough. Participants will need to navigate the tracks and trails of the Lake District, Yorkshire Dales and North York Moors during the fully serviced event. You'll not only get to sample some of the UK's best mountain biking but will also venture through jaw-dropping scenery during what's set to be an unforgettable ride.
The Crossing takes place between 11 and 13 July, so there's still time to get training and encourage your friends to get involved too.
BikeRadar is also giving readers a chance to save a whopping 15 percent off the entry fee. So what are you waiting for? Visit the Rat Race Crossing site and use voucher code BRTC15 to unlock your 15 percent discount. For more details on the event go to the Rat Race website.
