The Coquet Classic

About the Event

The Coquet Classic, an exhilarating single-day enduro event nestled within Rothbury, Northumberland, invites cyclists who have ventured beyond the confines of trail centers into the realm of off-piste terrain. Spanning 32 kilometers and featuring seven stages, this loop winds through the breathtaking landscapes of Northumberland National Park and the serene Coquetdale.
Participants will traverse hand-built singletrack trails that offer a natural riding experience. The route takes riders through Simonside Forest, areas affected by Storm Arwen's clear fell damage, heather-clad moorland, and scattered woodland settings. Each stage presents varying terrain challenges, including roots, rocks, mud, and steeper sections.
Ideal for those comfortable with technical trails and seeking an immersive day in nature, the Coquet Classic promises a memorable journey through diverse landscapes. Riders can also opt to purchase XCover insurance, providing peace of mind should unforeseen circumstances prevent their attendance.
