Has anyone got the full route for the Burns' Coastal Challenge ? Ideally I'd like a .gpx/tcx so I can load the route into my gps. The website doesn't have much info.
Thanks,
Colin

    Welcome to BR, colinx.

    Would this be the Burns' Solway Coastal Challenge Sportive, part of Dumfries and Galloway's Original Bicycle Festival (loads going on for all ages and abilities)?

    I had a look on Bikely, but couldn't find anything. Have you tried Mapmyride, bikeroutetoaster etc. there might be something on one of them.

    The event's signposted and marshalled so it's unlikely that you'll get lost.

    You can still enter this event. We are quite pleased with the entry for saying it's the first time and it clashes with the etape du dales and the caledonian.

    You can enter on the day, but if your thinking of riding you could pm me and i will make the organiser aware of your intention to join in.

    anyone thinking of comeing for few days, let me know if you would like ideas for other good routes in the area. (theres lots)
