Race overview
This is THE classic MTB Marathon in the UK. The course is designed by trail-building legend (he'll hate us for saying that!) Peter Laing, and has regularly been voted the best in the country.
Come and test yourself on a fantastic mix of natural singletrack, twin-track forest roads, ancient drove roads, hand-made singletrack, and trail centre. You'll visit the valleys of the Rivers Tweed, Yarrow and Ettrick, and of course, the high points in between. So, expect lung and thigh busting climbs that are rewarded with epic grin-inducing descents.
The race takes place on the steppes and mountains near the reservoir Bartogay. The varied terrain and weather conditions make this race a real challenge even for professional riders. diferent kind of soil, open plateaus and narrow singletrack, crossing rivers and technically uphill will realize all your potential and raise it up to a new level!
