Test your mind, challenge your mates and rip off your legs on a day out in Yorkshire that will take you into the darkest depths of bike riding.
Spanning 110 miles, 9489 ft and taking in seven of North Yorkshire’s notorious killer climbs, the Struggle makes a century ride feel like your average Sunday club run!
Dare to dig yourself out of the black hole, down that last gel and block out the lactic-acid-burn as you crest the final climb back to Harrogate to complete one utterly epic day on the bike.
The Struggle is set within North Yorkshire’s stunning scenery along the region’s best cycling roads. Whether you rock up and ride alone, or roll out in club kit - the Struggle offers a day of ‘fun’, camaraderie and bike-riding banter.
