Description

For those who like a little night ride, a 10.30pm start, expect to ride the first half of the event in the dark. A (very) X-Rated basic event, Roadside start and finish at Cafe in Morpeth.
You will need to be prepared to ride sections of up to 100km with no facilities. This is an event intended for those who are capable of riding extended distances at night and being self sufficient.
Currently facilities are a 24 hour petrol Station with shop or a McDonalds in Berwick upon Tweed.
Newsagents in Hawick from 6.00am, Petrol station from 6am, shops from 7am
By the time you get to Newcastleton the shop will be open and for most the bakery/cafe will be open (tbc). The route goes through Bellingham on the way back from Newcastleton so there should be shops or cafes open by the time most people get there. There's a bit of a climb after Bellingham but after that it's mainly downhill back to finish at The Pavilion CafΘ in Carlisle Park in Morpeth. Sounds easy!
