Unique well organised event deserving cult status

From entry to finish this is a fantastic unique event, well organised and a great atmosphere.
No wonder it sells out every year,

What an Amazing Event

The out and back on the beach was tough more single track would be an improvement. But that is a very minor thing. Over overlay just an outstanding event with an amazing friendly and chilled atmosphere.

Brutally-epic!

A great atmosphere, run exceptionally well, my second time and I'm sure I'll be back for more punishment next year.

Excellent.

The course this year was fantastic. Really liked going along the beach both ways. You got to see the leaders which was amazing. A great atmosphere in the event village. Well done

Must do

Every year it gets better, I’ve done every one so it’s great to see the evolution

We’ve done this every year bar one and I recommend it everyone who listens at how great the organisation is and such a friendly atmosphere it’s my favourite event by far of the year.

Keep doing what you are doing as I think it’s refreshing when so many events are tense competitive affairs that are not inclusive. An excellent weekend.

Brilliant event, the only frustration are the queues on the first lap

Super event and a really friendly atmosphere. Would definitely consider doing it again. The only criticism are the queues on the first lap which sort of made it pointless burying myself on the first lap. I think there needs to be a way of stringing our riders a bit more on the first lap through the dunes.

Once you ride Beach you never go back

Well organised, good fun, still difficult with bottle necks on some parts and it would be good to start riders in time boxes otherwise its a long wait if you want to be at the front in at the start line.

Great event would do it again well organised so will defffo be back for 2026

Would be good to see more food and drink places considering ratio to number of riders?
Great parking facilities that’s for sure.
