Dusk Til Dawn is 12!

News

We’ve only just got back from Sleepless, but it’s already time to think about the darker months…

For the 12th year, through-the-night racing returns to Thetford Forest. One of the traditional season closers, Dusk Til Dawn has always been the hard race you can use to see just how fit you got in the summer. And, despite a couple of wet years, it’s mostly been dry and fast – and given that it’s nearly flat, it’s WAY harder than it seems and has broken many a cocky rider…

This year there are new sponsors: title sponsorship goes to Halo rims and wheels from local Ison Distribution. Exposure Lights has supported the event for the last two years and is back again.

The event will be held on October 6th and 7th at the High Lodge Forestry Centre in Thetford Forest, Suffolk. There’ll be food, under-cover changeover(yay!) and a large marquee for solo racers. There will also be the traditional, yet still shocking, fireworks and crazy tree light displays. You can enter solo, as a pair or a team.
