Brooks England Teaser for North London Dirt 2022
Brooks England is once again the official partner for London’s coolest gravel event: North London Dirt 2022. Following a 115km (70 mile) all-surface course, NLD offers riders a self-supported gravel adventure unlike any other, covering everything from quiet lanes and dirt paths to tight wooded singletrack. Beyond providing participants with a single-day urban, suburban, and rural escape from the city, the event also brings a diverse gravel community together to raise money for the St. Mary’s Centre—a London community hub that hosts, among other things, a migrant centre, food bank and homeless shelter. The event starts with a warm cup of Workshop Coffee and ends with a cold pint from Magic Rock Brewing.
