ROAD SPORTIVE: 200 miles

Dartmoor Legend Ultra

April 24, 2027
from 5:00 am

Which event? See below..

Overview

Are you ready to take on the toughest one day ultra cycling challenge in the *UK? It’s tougher than the Yorkshire Beast, tougher than the long Dragon Ride & much tougher than the Majorca 312!

We are returning with our new course starting and finishing at Exeter Racecourse. On this course there are only a few miles you ride more than once as you’ll see from the map below. However you do pass our main feedstation at Postbridge three times. We’ll be taking a bag there for any competitors who’d like one, where you can leave spare kit & food.

Our GPS trackers mean friends & relatives will be able to ‘dot watch’ and see your progress online during the event.

All participants must enter online in advance of the event. There will be no entry-on-the-day. The Event HQ opens the day before for participants to register & collect their Ride Packs. If you have trouble reaching HQ on Friday, you can still register at 4am on Saturday morning.

The Dartmoor Legend will start from Exeter Racecourse.  05:00 hrs on Saturday 11th July 2026 and are required to finish by midnight. The time limit of 19 hrs (from 5am) is based on an average of 10.5mph including all stops & breaks!

*Based on speaking to finishers of these events who also rode the Dartmoor Legend.
