The Gorrick Team don't only run race events, each year they use their considerable skills and experience to organise two timed, choice of distance, fully supported, marked route rides along quiet lanes, tracks, bridleways and singletrack in Hampshire and Wiltshire. The Hot Challenge is this Sunday 22 May based out of Vernham Dean Pavilion, Vernham Dean, Hants SP11 0JY.
Here's some FILM that Michael ward shot in the Woods section at last year's Hot Challenge https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cuupNDp53Pw
Established over several years, these very popular events offer something for all riders. Some like to push themselves, others like to ride with their family (U16s ride FREE) whilst others just enjoy riding through the stunning scenery with their mates. All riders receive a finisher’s award and the sublime on site catering ranges from coffee and homemade cakes to beer and a bbq.
