Struggle Dales

Struggle Dales - #BRING COURAGE

Since playing host to the 2014 Tour de France Grand Depart, the beautiful spa town of Harrogate in Yorkshire has gained status as one of the UK’s top cycling destinations. Harrogate is hosting the World Road Race Championships in 2019 so now is the time to explore the stunning scenery of the Yorkshire Dales before the throng of cycling fans begin rolling in so take on the Struggle Dales!

Here at All Things Ride we’ve handpicked the best Yorkshire cycling event to showcase the beautiful but challenging roads in the stunning UK landscape. Struggle Events has gained rapid traction after the launch of their flagship event Struggle Dales, a few years ago. What’s great about Struggle Dales is the route’s stunning scenery as the quiet country roads have you darting between iconic drystone walls and up over the most challenging, infamous Yorkshire Dales climbs. It’s an event not to be taken lightly, but with training and determination it’s achievable for all abilities of ambitious cyclists.

Struggle Dales is excellently organised, the OTE Sports nutrition at feed stations provides what you want when you want it, and the post-ride atmosphere at the finish line is great for enjoying a beer and soaking up your achievement. Struggle Dales is a relatively new yet highly sought-after cycling event.

Numbers are limited and spaces are selling fast so don’t delay if you’re considering riding this beautiful but brutal event. Enquire today!
