'Glenland BBQ in a Barn' is a cycling event hosted by the BVRT Users Association. Starting in Harlin, we ride on the BVRT to Moore. We then take off over an old stock route, followed by a mix of bitumen and gravel roads to the Glenland cattle property where they have a large rustic barn that's been converted into a wedding venue.

We've hired the barn for the occasion to host a delicious great BBQ buffet catered by R and K catering. The menu includes BBQ Marinated Chicken, BBQ Lamb,BBQ Vegetables with Feta & Tabbouleh, Caesar Salad, Roast Pumpkin & Beetroot Salad with baby spinach, pine nuts & feta, Balsamic Tomato Salad, Pesto Pasta Salad and Dinner Rolls & Butter. Dessert includes Fresh Fruit Salad, Lemon Cheesecake Bites, and Petite Pavlova. If you have special dietery requirements, just contact us before the event so we can let the caterer know.

The property is set in stunning Somerset scenery not normally accessible to the public. There is a high probability of encountering deer and wallabies.

Some sections are quite hilly, but every climb is followed by a great descent. The stock route has rough sections and some sections with long grass. Reasonable fitness levels and moderate off-road bike handling skills are essentials.

We start and finish in Harlin.

This ride is suitable for MTBs, gravel bikes and hybrids. E-bikes suitable for off-road cycling are welcome
