The name suggests that it goes over Dartmoor, it doesn't. It is 70 miles of greenlanes, public roads and private land around south Devon. 13 sections and one special test (MX) and then a Fcuk Off hill climb at the end if you fancy it.

Apparently it is called The Ten Tors because it used to start at a pub called The Ten Tors. I haven't done it before but it should be a laugh....

In the end I didn't do this one. I cracked a rib night time greenlaning about a month ago and I pulled it out of place a few days before the event.

A couple of mates did do it and they enjoyed it, lots of deep water apparently! Next year.....

Unlucky about the rib, do many people do night rides?
Im looking forward to giving it a crack next year aswell.

Night time laning is what the twin Baja headlights are for. You don't meet walkers or horses!
