The Devon Dirt is an annual off road endurance bike event, with a mixture of off road tracks and country lanes, usually between 55Km and 70Km. It’s organised by CTC Devon in association with the Bigpeaks Bike Shop in Ashburton. It’s a non-competitive challenge – i.e. we want everybody to get round the course in their own time safety, and enjoy a great day off road in Devon.
The Devon Dirt will be held on 17 April 2016. The event will start at 9.30!
The organisers offer limited support to help you get around the course, we provide feeding stations, usually with cold drinks and cakes along the route, and Bigpeaks will supply a mechanic in case you have a breakdown. You should however be self sufficient in terms of food and basic repairs, and it’s a good idea to ride with a small group or a friend if possible.
Finishers get one of our famous and cool T-shirts (paid for by your entry fee), together with a certificate, and you can keep your entry number board.
