Ride into The Mile.
Every pilgrimage starts with a road worth taking.
That’s why, on Thursday 16 July, REV’IT! and Malle are bringing together a small group of riders for The REV’IT! x The Malle Mile Pilgrimage: a full day on backroads from Mill Race Moto to The Mile. It won’t be the fastest way there, and that’s the point.
We’ll start at Mill Race Moto and ride north together towards Grimsthorpe Castle, with lunch along the way and whatever weather decides to show up.
By the time we arrive at The Malle Mile, a welcome drink will be waiting at the REV’IT! trailer for a final toast before a weekend of losing races begins.

What to Expect
A guided road ride into The Malle Mile, built around the journey rather than the quickest route.
We’ll start the day at Mill Race Moto, ride north as a small group, stop for lunch along the way, and arrive at Grimsthorpe Castle together.
This is not a race, competition, training or timed ride. Normal traffic rules apply at all times. Ride at your own pace and stay within your own limits.
Mill Race Moto
The Pilgrimage starts at Mill Race Moto, a new venue in Aldham, Colchester.
The venue officially opens on 1 August, but riders joining the REV’IT! x Malle Pilgrimage will get an early private look around before it opens to the public.
Stu and Dan from Mill Race Moto will welcome the group with coffee on arrival. After check-in and the rider briefing, we’ll leave together for Grimsthorpe Castle.
