Yorkshire Coast Dirt Dash 2026

Join us for the Yorkshire Coast Dirt Dash. This self-supported bikepacking event takes you in two days around the dramatic scenery of the Yorkshire Coast and North York Moors National Park, following the same successful formula as the Dashes in the Cateran Ecomuseum and Dunoon.

The Dirt Dashes are friendly, professionally designed gravel riding events that mix great routes, local character, and a strong sense of community. They’re built around the idea that riders come first: many participants return year after year.

The Dirt Dashes have a strong community vibe: our events genuinely feel like a big riding family. You ride routes planned by Markus Stitz, a seasoned route designer with multiple gravel and bikepacking guidebooks to his name. We use local caterers and quirky, memorable start/finish locations and throughout the weekend you can enjoy a well-supported, relaxed atmosphere: challenging but approachable rides in stunning landscapes.
