Hit The North (Again)

by 16

Hit the North. July 17th 2010.

Subject to confirmation from the men in suits, Hit the North will be back on July 17th for an 8 hour festival of bicycle based suffering, comedy and carnage.

The track has the usual mix of cyclo-cross, mountain bike and hideous carrying sections with a couple of stream crossings, lots of cobbles and an angry farmer’s dog to further liven things up.

Some details in brief…

Any sort of bike as long as it has two wheels and one rider.
11:00 – 19:00hrs
6.5 mile laps.
Solo, pairs and teams of three.
Camping on Saturday night.
Beer tent.
Entertainment.
Fancy timing that gives instant updates on-line and via a wireless network at the campsite.

Price to be confirmed, but it won’t break the bank.

More details when we have them on www.hitthenorth.net and on Twitter @hit_the_north

I have been a writer for nigh on 20 years, a photographer for 25 years and a mountain biker for 30 years. I have written countless magazine and website features and route guides for the UK mountain bike press, most notably for the esteemed and highly regarded Singletrackworld. Although I am a Lancastrian, I freely admit that West Yorkshire is my favourite place to ride. Rarely a week goes by without me riding and exploring the South Pennines.
