MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Im thinking of doing the challenge,but would just like to know what its like because i live in sheffield and with just fuel and the 27 pound entry fee it will end up costing at least £80 for me.also if anyone has done it before and lives near sheff,how long did it take to get there.cheers
Done it a few times, (from Leeds)Early Sunday morning I reckon 2 3/4 hours is a steady time to get there from Sheffield.
It's a good event, seems a lot longer than it actually is though.I hope you like pedalling uphill!
I've done it once. I was very dissapointed - £27 to ride around a trail centre. 🙁
If you can only afford to do one event, try and get hold of an entry to Dyfi: Machynlleth is pretty much the same distance as Keswick from Sheffield, and its a whole lot better riding and atmosphere.
Or, drive to the Lakes, and ride elsewhere for free 🙂
