There will be fuel stops along the way but make sure you fill up before the start of the ride. The best option is to join The North Run at the start point here at Adrenalin HQ, or if you prefer wait for us to arrive at one of the meeting points. Failing that, meet us at the final destination at Castle Syke Hill in Ackworth. Whatever you do, just be there yeah?
All riders are welcome on The North Run - geared scoots, autos, motorcycles, the more the merrier. It doesn't cost anything to take part. We won't be going on any motorways, so riders with L-plates can join in. If you want to camp at Ackworth then bring a tent, it won't cost you anything to pitch a tent either. Catering vans serving food and refreshments will be on site and toilet facilities. To make things easier, we'll be providing transport for riders who want to offload camping gear (Tip: Make sure you put labels on your stuff then it'll be easier to find when we get to Ackworth). Attractions include a bucking bronco, kickstart style grass track racing, trophies and prizes for best custom scoots, merchandise, a DJ knocking out some banging tunes and a surprise spectacle to keep you all entertained...
As usual we'll keep you all informed of any new developments leading up to the event, but for now it's looking good.
