If you're only doing one CX event this summer, make it Haugh + Cross.
Returning to the Aberdour Festival, Scotland's original summer cyclo-cross bonanza delivers fast racing, festival vibes, cowbells, close battles and a full day of action on and off the bike.

Your entry includes:
• Dual Slalom to decide your gridding

• Kids races & Family Relay
• Post-race ceilidh & complimentary BBQ
• Festival atmosphere all day long

We're delighted to have Vittoria UK supporting the event, while Genesis Bikes and Ridgeback Bikes will be on site with demo bikes available throughout the day, including a dedicated kids' demo area.

We've also heard rumours that a few very big names from the world of cyclo-cross could be making an appearance... more on that soon.

And remember: the bigger the entry, the bigger the prize purse.

Get your club mates, teammates and rivals signed up and let's make Haugh + Cross 2026 the biggest one yet.

Well… after watching the London Marathon today, who else is suddenly convinced they’re basically an elite runner? 😂

Sub-2 hour marathons, incredible crowds, emotional finishes… and now you’re thinking: “Yeah… I could do that.”

Good news - you absolutely can (well… maybe not sub-2 just yet ).

Enter: The Donkey Brae race
No world records required, just a bit of effort and maybe some questionable pacing decisions halfway through. Whether you’re chasing a PB, running with friends, or just soaking up the atmosphere, it’s your chance to be part of something special right here at home.

Lace up, sign up, and let’s make it happen!
