This run is graded as Hard, approx 400k on Friday and 460k on Monday and includes secondary roads through mountainous countryside.
For logistical reasons/accommodation limits, the numbers will be limited to 10 cars. Please book your spot early as this is a popular run which will fill quickly owing to the limitation on numbers.
Please note that motel bookings must be finalised by 5th March. This will be the closing date for the run.
