THE ELAN VALLEY MTB CHALLENGE 2013

23rd June 2013  |  Rhayader

NOTE: The date has recently been changed from 9th June to 23rd June

The Elan Valley is a superb area for mountain biking, and as far as we know this is the first time an event has been staged here. Offering everything from gorgeous singletrack, long flowing downhills, steep and technical climbs and downhills, bedrock.

The short and medium routes will be based mainly in the valley it self. The long route will be one taking in the Elan Valley, Strata Florida, and heading down towards Llanwrtyd Wells (due to the exposed nature of the ride we may have to change the course if the weather goes against us). The long route is superb we really recommend this as a to do route.

This event will have a mass start. There will be one food stop for the 30k route and two for the 50k and 75k routes.
