North Devon Festival

Great news- The Devon Coast to Coast Challenge is officially part of the North Devon Festival. This will give us a chance to really grow the event, and give you even more riders to ride with! BUT- there has had to be a change to enable us to fit in- that is- there is a

New Date

So, cross out the last date and mark in Sunday June 8th 2008. That's Sunday 8th June- make it a date!

Route Announcements

As we have announced before, the traditional Ilfracombe to Plymouth is changing this year- and from now on. A new year, a new challenge- still starting from Ilfracombe, but ending at a different location on the South Coast of Devon. Details still to be finalised, but we can reveal there will be 2 routes- a D route of 67 miles, or the Z route of 91 miles. Same start, same end, and there will be points which the 2 groups will meet up along the way to enable people to switch groups as they desire. You can do the route, the direction, the distance you want!

Same start time- 8am- but a new start location. We can reveal that we are starting this year the LandMark Theatre! What a great location to get us going!

The full route will be announced at a social event in February- check your in box for more announcements nearer the end of January.

That's it for another newsletter- keep your emails coming in, and look forward to seeing you all again next month at the route announcement social event!
