The Delyn Challenge (now the Flintshire Challenge) was an annual endurance event held along the Clwydian Range. Held in October the event is seen by local riders as the ultimate test of their summer training. This route emulates the Delyn Challenge with a little bit added on, just in case you found it too easy! Expect to be out most of the day on this one, and don’t expect it to be plain sailing. He who takes this route too lightly, can expect to pay a heavy price – sore legs at the very least! So go on, get out there and enjoy it!

Route/Name: Going Backwards
Grade: Hard / Intermediate
Total distance: 37km (Approx.)
Approx. ride time: 5hrs

3d view
Ridden in a clockwise direction this ride really does have a wilderness feel about it. With the start and finish in the historic market town of Ruthin, the route soon gets you out onto the hillside with a tough climb straight up and over the Range. The route then takes you across the eastern side of the Range and through Clwyd Forest before the welcome descent back into the Vale of Clwyd. A ride that requires a degree of fitness with rewards to match.

Route/Name: Loop De Loop
Grade: Hard / Advanced
Total distance: 53.5km(Approx.)
Approx. ride time: 6hrs

*
3d view & flythrough
Comprising of 5 interlinked loops, this route really has the potential to test even the most hardened rider. The loops however make it possible for slightly less experienced riders to ‘pick and choose’ a shorter route if they so desire. Each individual loop has something a little different to offer, whether it be a long green lane climb or a fast singletrack descent, one thing will always be in the back of your mind, the feeling of adventure!
