From the creator of the infamous Yorkshire Dales 300 comes to North York Moors 300
Our first event was last years and well received by those who finished. Now in its second year with a few amendments to enhance the already epic route.
This gravel bike friendly route takes you through beautiful surroundings and trails you will remember for years to come. The terrain is quick under your wheels with a 50/50 split between road and off road but don't underestimate the 5300 meters of climbing.
Those that rode the event non stop last year took between 18 and 24 hrs. Those who enjoyed the weekend, arrived back at HQ Sunday afternoon.
Visit the North York Moors 300 Facebook page for info or the Eventbrite link where you can access the route download and other info.
So many events and rides. Not enough weekends hey. The NYM300 gets you a breakfast before you set off and a hot meal on your return and if you finish you get a commemorative woven badge. All for £25.
Cheers all.
Looks fab! Close enough to home, too.
Close to me as well , I could probably ride it over a week ! .... not in a few days likes some nutters !
I think I might try to get a pass agreed for this one ...
Gravel bike with 700x40/42 tyres? Or Ti HT (rigid fork) with fast 2.2 XC tyres? Am thinking the latter ...
Looks mega, nice one.
The cynic in me: if you gave it some hipster name like NRT YRK MRS 300 you could probably charge £100 for entry 😉
Thread revival. Am about to book an entry I think.
What bike/tyres?
I’m hoping to have another go. Had a terrible start to the year with several viruses and colds etc though so not sure how the next month or two will pan out in preparation!
A mix of gravel bikes, hard tails and full suspension took part last year. I think the quickest was on a gravel bike but the full suspensions weren’t too far behind. There was lot of fast gravel but also some pretty rocky trails. Fast tyres are best.
If I had a short travel hardtail I’d probably pick that
