Next year's event is on Sat 13th June from Wheelbase in Staveley. I did it last year and really enjoyed it. Short or Long MTB Course, solo, pair or team entry. Free meal and after party in Hawkshead Brewery, free camping and swimming ;-) Might be too low key or easy for you lot, but a possible alternative to the cancelled Whinlatter Challenge. www.samhoughtonchallenge.co.uk/Grace

Looks like a decent event and they've booked The Seals for the post ride party

Quite like the look of this, will have to have another look closer the time to see if I'm free that weekend, but could possibly make a weekend out of it.
Maybe do the ride we done from Wheelbase the "Borrowdale Bash" weekend ?

Yeah I'm down to do the long one and same starting slot too. Will probably travel up Saturday morning as it's only an hour and a half for me but will be staying over Saturday night. Just need to find somewhere to camp nearby - preferably within walking distance of the Hawkshead brewery!

Me, I have entered, short course though. Will be camping over in the free campsite. There is a river you can swim in, to wash all the crap off, and also apparently showers at the bike shop (where the start and finish is).

I take it there won't be feed or fluid stations on the event. Just thinking of running 2 bottles and nutrition in the pockets if there was a feed, otherwise it's the camelback option!
