This is a mass participation event with all proceeds going towards the costs of sending an IOM cycling team of Road and MTB riders, plus support staff to the 2025 Orkney Island Games.
The event is designed to cater for all abilities and types of cyclist, including our growing number of e-bikers.
Online Entry is just £22, (£12 for Under 16’s), and due to the generous value-in-kind sponsorship from Robinson’s and Cycle 360 towards our costs, much of your entry fee will go directly to fund the team.
Entry includes: Electronic timing, energy gel, cycling bottle, route signage, gpx files, photos on Facebook and 2 feed stations on the route
Entries are capped at 200 participants on a first-come, first-served basis.
So, please join us for an exhilarating day of cycling and community spirit – whether you’re an avid cyclist or a beginner, this event promises to be a great day out, all while supporting a really good cause.
