Unconfirmed dates as yet, check here for the latest updates.
Dates confirmed! Check here for updates.
Last year this was epic fun, roughly 180 longboarders all skated the 18 miles from Bath-Bristol in order to save the cycle path from destruction. We won! So it's still there!
This year it's gonna be done for Austism so get some sponsors and come on down! Nice flat cycle path, lots of pubs on the way and the finish is a weatherspoons!
We were worried about it being hard, but it's suprisingly little effort! The stoke is incredible!
For afters we have a lovely garage nearby for the next day, no hassle, lots of skating and good times! Or even some epic hills if it's sunny....
