The Autumn DRRt
Primary tabs
Here are some FAQs about the events.
Are the DRRt events a race?
No, this is not a timed event and there are no prizes for finishing in a particular time. However, many riders are keen to push themselves and see how they perform on Strava! Others are content to make use of the number of country pubs and tea shops on the route.
What kind of riding is it?
The routes are designed to be a series of long bridleway sections linked by a few country roads and lanes. Most of the terrain is fairly easy, but we’ve thrown in a few technical climbs and descents that will really have you concentrating hard. There are a couple of short cut points if the bike is playing up or the legs are running on empty!
How do I enter?
When available click on our event links https://dorsetroughriders.co.uk/the-drrt/ which will take you to the Events Booking and Calendar page – enter your details and select your Membership Type – non-member or member (for DRR club members only). You will then be redirected to the bookings form and payment page.
Your name will be placed on our entry database, so all you need to do is turn up on the day. An email detailing important information, will be sent to all entrants, one week prior to the event.
What do I get for my entry fee?
A colour map with a detailed ride guide on the reverse. A code of conduct for all riders is on the rear – please read this carefully.
A route way marked with over 50 direction signs.
A halfway checkpoint with drinks and sweets available.
Updated for 2023: Either a DRRt performance T shirt in your chosen size – secure your size by online pre-paid entry OR a bag of goodies to the same value which includes socks, neck buff and other offers – you choose what you would like (subject to availability).
Emergency phone number in case you get lost or have a mechanical failure that you are unable to repair (on the map).
Lots of smiles!
Can I enter and pay on the day?
Yes, at the moment there is no surcharge for entering on the day. However, please bear in mind that T shirts are reserved for pre-paid entries and there may not be any spare ones left in your size. A postage charge will be payable if you want to receive one later.
