For the true off-road cycling enthusiast who thrives on challenging terrain and breathtaking landscapes, Somerset offers ‘The Triple’ – a unique series of mountain bike events that will test your limits and reward your dedication. In 2026, cyclists can challenge themselves by participating in three distinct races across some of England’s most iconic countryside. ‘The Triple’ includes entries into the Mendip Murmuration on Saturday, June 13th, followed by the Exmoor Explorer on Sunday, July 12th, and culminating with the Quantock Quake on Saturday, September 5th. This series is designed for those who are not only up to the task of conquering rugged terrains but also capable of balancing their training over a season. By signing up for ‘The Triple,’ participants secure exclusive entry into all three events at a discounted rate and enjoy VIP registration privileges, allowing them quick access on event days. It’s important to note that individual entries do not offer these benefits, making The Triple the only way to experience this trio of races in their entirety. Each race presents its own unique challenges: the Mendip Murmuration navigates through the rolling hills around Cheddar Gorge; the Exmoor Explorer takes cyclists on a scenic journey across the wild and picturesque landscapes of Exmoor National Park; while the Quantock Quake offers an intense ride over the historic Quantock Hills, where early registration is crucial due to limited spots. Completing ‘The Triple’ not only guarantees entry into all three events but also qualifies participants for membership in our Elite Triple Club. This exclusive club celebrates those who have successfully tackled these challenging courses and adds a sense of camaraderie among like-minded cyclists. To commemorate this achievement, specially designed hand-finished medals are available as an optional extra to celebrate your success at the finish line. These unique keepsakes serve as enduring reminders of your journey through Somerset’s diverse landscapes. We eagerly await seeing you on all three start lines in 2026 and look forward to witnessing the triumphs that will unfold across these stunning terrains. Join us now for ‘The Triple’ – an adventure not just around hills, but also within yourself.
