Saddle up and raise funds with Ride the North cycling challenge
Ride the North is back for 2025 and open for registrations.
Starting and ending at the spectacular Glamis Castle, there are two routes to choose from - 93 or 68 miles - which wind their way through the foothills of the Cairngorms.
This event has a friendly, festival vibe with lots of cyclists riding through charming villages on scenic backroads in North-east Scotland. It's not a race or a sportive; instead, it's a ride that celebrates the joy of cycling and the beautiful landscapes of the region. All with the added bonus of raising vital funds for Charlie House.
With mechanical support, support vehicles, clear signs, lunches, on-the-go coffee, snacks, and plenty of encouragement, this ride is a challenge that suits cyclists of any skill level.
Ride the North do not provide guidance on the accessibility of the event. However, their FAQs may provide some info to help you decide if the event is suitable for you: Ride the North FAQs
