The Slick 'n' Knobbly Cycling Festival

2hr or 4hr Mountain Bike Endurance Race

- a mountain bike endurance challenge for all abilities age 16 and over. Competitors will race around a new 6 mile course in Myarth Forest in the grounds of the estate. The course combines some long stoney climbs with some fantastic 'Star Wars' style singletrack zipping through the trees to create a physically challenging route suitable for every level of rider.

Dirt Crit Racing (over 16's)

- starting in the evening with the final round being run just as the sun sets this racing will be fast and furious around a 1km long twisty grass course with a few obstacles to negotiate in and around the arena. Each category will compete for 30 minutes + 1 lap. Fun, friendly competition, show-boating and fancy dress is encouraged!
