You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
Newcastleton will be hosting a 4 hour mountain bike orienteering (MBO) score competition taking in the "debatable" lands of Southern Scotland and North Cumbria. Expect some fast trails, forest tracks, sweet singletrack and quiet roads with a few hills thrown in for good measure
Mountain Bike Orienteering (MBO) is a fun off road event were YOU choose the course! The choice of route is up to you! 30 electronic checkpoints are scattered across a 60 to 100 square kilometre playing area. The winner is the person who collects the most points in a set time
Tactics, fitness and the odd bit of luck all play a part in being a successful Mountain Bike Orienteerer!
It's a great day out for all ages and abilities and everyone is really friendly!!
Entry starts from £15 for solos, £25 for teams and only £5 for juniors
