The 30 mile route of the CVMBC is a mixture of demanding off road
terrain, local roads and lanes, set around the picturesque
countryside of the Colne Valley.
The course travels through the heart of the "Last of the Summer
Wine" and "Where the Heart Is" country. The event is open to anyone
aged 12 or over, however under 16's must be supervised at all times
by a responsible adult. Riders of all abilities are welcomed, but
are reminded that although this is primarily a fun event, the
course is challenging.

The CVMBC is a fundraising event in support of the 39th Parkwood
Scout Group and Leymoor Cricket Club, Golcar.
Note: You do not have to touch the dry stone
walls.
