We return to The National Forest Explorer again to end the 2026 season and because the route is so good, it remains unchanged. The 2024 event was pivotal for Gravelton Events. A big turnout that day was the catalyst for making 2025 the best season yet for rider numbers. Leicestershire is littered with interconnecting trails, byways and disused railway lines, all brought together by routemaster Chris. Throw in a decent cafe at the start/finish and the route has everything a gravel ride needs. Hands down one of my favourite places to ride my gravel bike.
