Your last chance of the year to get down and durty with the Northumbrian Section! The famous Colonial Run sets out with brave riders ready to do battle with the elements, mud and route sheets. What better way to spend a Sunday in Autumn?
The Anchor Inn can provide food and beverages before the start the day. If you do want to have a breakfast, it would be best to give the pub a ring to confirm this.
You can leave your cars/trailers in the car park BUT you need to ensure they are registered with the pub management to avoid parking charges.
At lunchtime, you will have the chance to refresh yourself before meandering back to The Anchor, empty the water from your boots, put dry clothes on before having a celebratory drink before heading home.
Sounds good to me. The run is designed for bikes with some off-road capability (same with the riders). Trials universal tyres only please - no knobblies. For those of you not on trail bikes, a road bike route is provided. So, who cares if winter is round the corner, come join us!
