*UPDATE* Given the 2020 Covid-19 situation, we are running two editions of the 2021 Route Beer Ramble. There are limited places left on the first edition (10th April) as we’ve auto-transferred all 2020 bookings to this date, however the 17th is open and raring for new bookings 🙂
Expect a couple of ace lengthy days riding, Pannier Checkpoints, a Pannier Camp Overnigher, evening pub meal, cafe and tearoom stops en-route, and the big finale taproom session on Sunday afternoon…
