ABOUT
Description
A stunning cycle tour of the Somerset levels, followed by a climb up the fabulous Cheddar Gorge.
This fun sportive ride is about taking your time, enjoying the views and just getting in some early season cycling miles.
With 3 route options available, ensuring the cycling routes have limited climbing where possible which makes the routes an interesting mix of flat sections and stunning sportive beauty suitable for all.
We have included the CHEDDAR GORGE, climb as its near the end of all routes and is a good tick for your cycling palmarès.
No matter your ability, this is a friendly and welcoming sportive.
A great medal awaits every participant, along with access to well-stocked free feed stations throughout the ride!
