NOTICE REGARDING 2021 EVENT CANCELLATION
Thank you for bearing with us but we have taken the decision to cancel Cycling in the Straths 2021 as the team felt unable to safely run the event.
For all those who have signed up to 2021 we will be in touch directly via e-mail.
Stay safe everyone and we look forward to welcoming you back in 2022.

Join us for a fun filled day of cycling and Mackay Country hospitality. Early arrivals can enjoy a relaxing evening sampling the hospitality on offer in the local hotels before the main event.
Although the event will be timed, it is not a race. Both routes will give riders a challenge with plenty of opportunity to demonstrate cycling skills and stamina. It is expected that both routes will be completed in 5 hours.

Participants will be able to choose from two route:
-
Strathnaver Challenge – a 68-mile trip leaving Tongue towards Bettyhill, riders will then head inland through Strathnaver to Altnaharra, along Strathmore and back to Tongue.
-
Ben Hope Trial – a 48-mile route with riders starting and finishing in Tongue on a circuit via Altnaharra and Strathmore.

After the days cycling relax with live music in the local hotel - more details tba.
