Gorrick
Gorrick's first mountain bike event was in November 1992 and they soon developed a reputation for friendly, well organised events featuring superb courses and full facilities. They now offer a wide range of events including cross country races, cross country enduros, fully marked and supported challenge rides and orienteering events. Their enthusiastic team always ensures that you have a consistently first rate, good value riding experience.
