Boulder Dash

Description

208km cycling event starting from Achtermuchty. Controls at Callander, Killin and Auchtermuchty., plus 3 information controls.

A summer tour of spectacular Highland Perthshire featuring classic Scottish gravel in Glen Artney and Glen Almond, and the stunning Glen Ogle cycle route.

A challenging day out for the keen gravel rider confident negotiating rugged gravel tracks in remote locations. Almost 60km of off-road riding and lots of quiet back roads.
Not too hilly but there are still some testing climbs both on and off road.
A minimum speed of 14.3km/h should allow most riders enough time in hand to enjoy the controls and to take in the dramatic scenery.
Food and drink for all riders at the event HQ in Auchtermuchty.
