The Great Race is a test of skill, endurance and perhaps most of all bravery. All riders are welcome from novices to serious racers. Some wear lycra, others tweed, so whether it's a need for speed or just an excuse to dress up, there's something for everyone.
The racers will compete for the coveted Stockdale trophy, which will be awarded to the racer who completes the most laps in 3 hours.
The Great Race is unique and attracts riders from all over the world. Racers from as far a field as New Zealand, the USA, and even Hull, will be lining up on race day. If you want to join them please sign up to ride with our partner SI Entries using the button below.
The Great Race is a wonderful family day out with the emphasis on fun, thrills and hopefully no spills. The Moor will be centre of the day, with stalls, food and drink available and other attractions. The aim of the day is to have fun and raise money for some wonderful local charities, so if you would like to sponsor the race or reserve one of a limited number of pitches for a stall on the Moor, please get in touch with us by clicking on the button below.
The course is a challenging circuit of a little over half a mile (900m) which winds its way around the town centre in a clockwise direction, with the start-finish line on Moorside, before turning on to the gentle rise of King Street with a few twist a turns and one very gentle descent back to Moorside.
