The event starts and finishes at Dalston Village Hall (CA5 7QS) and is open to all cyclists over the age of 50 on 22nd June 2022.

The event, starting and finishing at (GR NY 368499) Dalston Village Hall (CA5 7QS), will consist of two courses of either 100 miles or 100km. The morning route will be 50% of the distance and will follow quiet country lanes in a southerly direction to Mungrisdale for 11s before returning to Dalston. After lunch we cycle out west in a loop around the Solway plain with great views across the Solway Firth to Scotland. Each course will return to Dalston for lunch and breaks for 11s and ‘tea’ will be provided in each loop.

This event has been designed to be a social activity, riders will ride and stay in designated groups which will be led by Eden Valley marshals. These groups will be put together according to the participant’s choice of speed and their preference to be with other riders (these factors will be addressed on the entry form).

Obviously if entrants wish to ride together, they will be allocated according to the speed of the slowest rider. Participants can choose to ride at one of the following nominal average speeds: 10/11, 11/12, 12/13mph or roughly 16/17, 18/19, 20/21 km/h.
There may be the possibility of riding in a predominantly women group – if you would like to be included in this please indicate when you enter.

The entry fee of £18 includes refreshment during the morning and afternoon rides and lunch at Dalston Village Hall in the middle of the day.
