Looking for an epic ultra-long distance cycling challenge to aim at this summer?
BikeRadar has teamed up with the event organiser Rat Race to offer two lucky winners free entry to the devilishly tough but heavenly beautiful 440-mile London to Edinburgh Rat Race Road Trip challenge.

What lies between is an epic journey through the heart of England, before crossing into the Scottish Borders for the last leg to Murrayfield.
