The 3rd Three Moors Run (Giro South West)
The UK’s premier event for Classic ‘Tiddlers’ of 175cc or under, plus 250ccs up to 1972. (Machines of up to 250cc and up to 1979 will be accepted by special arrangement only)
Saturday 10th September – Tuesday 13th September 2022

Be part of this 500 mile ride, on specially chosen roads, exclusively for the finest small capacity machinery.
The 3rd Three Moors Run (GSW) will run through some of the most beautiful scenery in the country, starting and finishing in Somerset. All three moors; Dartmoor, Exmoor and Bodmin Moor, will be traversed, plus those essential ‘ticks in the boxes’ across the sights of Devon and Cornwall. The route will involve mainly ’B’ roads and little used ‘A’ routes together with many, slow narrow typical West Country lanes.
Three Hotels/Dinners are included, chosen based on character and good food rather than shiny glass and rectangles.
Two back-up vans with capacity for six bikes will be provided (thanks to Lida, Louise and Tien) to mop-up breakdowns and to carry cases/bags/tools and spares between hotels.
Daily ‘recommended route’ cards will be issued for guidance, but the route is non-prescriptive, you can vary it as you wish. One of the back–up vans will follow the recommended route only. The cost is £399 all-inclusive, (excluding drinks) based on a shared room. A small number of double and single rooms will be available.

I did this in 2020 on my Ducati 175. Very enjoyable although the second day was 195 miles which was a bit punishing on a little bike.
I must admit I thought it was already full for 2022, but I could be wrong!

Just heard from the organiser that there are 2 or 3 places left.

Sounds like a great event
