Great British Gravel Rides: Cycling the wild trails of England, Scotland and Wales.

Great British Gravel Rides pays homage to the very best gravel cycling across England, Wales and Scotland. Whether you want a challenging pedal through the country’s awe-inspiring landscapes or a more leisurely day out in the saddle, let the film help you explore the best gravel cycling of Great Britain.

Edinburgh-based book author and filmmaker Markus Stitz has curated a collection of 25 routes across Britain – each a favourite route of a well-known gravel cyclist. After the successful launch of the book in 2022, this 60-minute documentary takes you on a journey through Britain on gravel bikes. You can join round-the-world cycling men’s record holder Mark Beaumont in East Lothian, experience a different side of East Anglia with ultra-endurance racer and GBDURO20 winners Josh Ibbett and Gail Brown or embark on a coast-to-coast trip across Scotland with round-the-world cycling women’s record holder Jenny Graham, or see the best of Scottish Borders with diversity in cycling champion Aneela McKenna.

Film is 19:30 – 20:30 followed by 1 hr Q&A with Stuart Kenny (Guardian).
