The 3 Peaks Cyclo-Cross Race 2025: An Interview with Will Scholey
The 3 Peaks Cyclo-Cross Race is often described as Britain’s toughest and most iconic cycling challenge. It covers around 38 miles across the Yorkshire Dales, combining rough tracks, steep climbs, rocky descents, and classic Dales road sections.
