Mike Glaister, co-organiser said: “Last year’s event attracted over 800 cyclists and raised over £9,000 for local charities. It is expected that demand will be even greater this year.”
This year’s ride will take place on Sunday, August 31 and the entry fee is £20. The 105 mile cyclo- sportive traces a figure of eight around the North Pennines taking in the climb of Hartside before heading back to Brampton and then alongside Hadrian’s Wall and onwards for a brief incursion into Scotland before finally returning to Brampton. It will be a challenging ride with 2900m of climbing.
