The first day is spent riding deep into the wild lands of the South Moor. The second day descends down from the Moor back to the sea front to spend the night in a lighthouse overlooking the Bristol Channel. The final day finishes with Exmoor's classic trails.

'I don't think I have ever been treated to hospitality that was so well planned and thoughtfully put together. From the knowledge of the routes, the quality of the food and lodgings and the evening entertainment to the overwhelming effort that was put in by the whole team to make our weekend so enjoyable.'
