Entries now being taken on a FIRST COME - FIRST SERVED BASIS!

LEJOG at randonneur standard. Route doesn't follow the most direct route between the start & finish whilst passing through England; Wales & Scotland! Riders will be expected to maintain a minimum cycling average speed of 12kph including anytime off the bike. Controls will be placed at roughly 50-mile intervals but 4 of the controls, which we hope riders will use overnight, will have adequate shower & sleeping facilities. Drop bag to 3 of the overnight controls will help ensure everyone makes it through this randonnee. No qualification required! Each and every rider will need to make their own way to the start at Land's End and home from John o' Groats afterwards. More information on the event website below!
