Our Favourite Sectors

Sector 1

Sector 1

A great way to kick off from the start, the adrenaline fuelled Sector 1 is listed at 3* and has a little bit of everything. From single track gravel bridleways under the trees to adventuring across open fields you’ll be riding dirty from the go!

Sector 8

Although graded lower due to the less adventurous terrain, sector 8 gives the longest continuous time off road. Enjoy the stunning leafy archways knowing once complete you’ll be heading into the town of Great Dunmow for a well-deserved feed stop.

Sector 13

Grading 4 stars, this sector is the most challenging of the ride. With 3 miles stretching across tracks within open fields, make the most of the incredible views and peaceful surroundings!
