Description
Now entering its fourth year, our 2027 event invites you to explore the beautiful countryside of West Sussex, taking in the timeless charm of quintessential English towns and villages that make this region so special.
The route features sections through the iconic South Downs National Park — a landscape celebrated for its rolling hills, rich history, and vibrant wildlife. It’s the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable day on two wheels.
Building on the success of previous editions, we're excited to offer three thoughtfully designed route options for 2027, catering to a range of abilities and ambitions. Whether you're a seasoned cyclist or new to sportives, you'll enjoy a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere and the camaraderie of a like-minded community, all set against some of England’s most picturesque scenery.
