Four of us heading down again. We will take a big bike group out, 2 of us to guide/tail end. 690, g650x, f800 and hp2e plus whoever else wants to tag along. Mixed ability, no one gets left behind.

Just to be clear the Burbridges Bakery Great Escape Ride is open to all (you don't need to be a TRF member) - the profits of the day go to locals charities - there are groups for all abilities and more pies than you can eat!
It's a cracking day out and great fun - whatever the weather - please do support it.
Details here -
Looking forward to it! :D

As above. Steve and his family at the bakery, along with the trf and other volunteers organise this ride. It’s great day out. Breakfast and lunch provided. Plenty of guides for all bike sizes and abilities. Check the FB site but I think it’s £35 for the day. All profits to local charities.

As previously stated, we’ll take a big bike group although in reality anyone is welcome. We tend to get a bit more ambitious with trails towards the end of the day.

In previous years we’ve ridden down the night before, had a curry and beers and then had to leave at 3 ish for the long ride home. This year we’re taking a van down on the morning, riding until we drop and then going out for beers and curry.
