TweedLove Bike Festival
Tweed Valley, Glentress, Peebles EH45 8NB
These days the Scottish Borders mean mountain biking, and if you like road or mountain biking then you will love the annual TweedLove festival, a superb event in late May/early June which offers an orgy of (mainly) mountain biking, with everything from laid-back family outings to tough and testing time-trial racing for the more ambitious. TweeLove is now the biggest festival of its kind in the UK. It hit global headlines in early 2014 when it confirmed it would be the first place in the UK to hold a round of the Enduro World Series. TweedLove, though, is still inherently inclusive, with amateurs to some of Scotland’s finest riders taking part thanks to events like an inclusive sportive. If you want to find out if biking is for you or to meet some new biking buddies this is the place to come. Oh, and the surrounding scenery is pretty epic too.
