ABOUT
Description
This isn’t your average sportive… this is a Spordax — a mix of sportive and audax — built for riders who love climbing and want a proper challenge.
With around 1500m+ (5203 feet) of climbing packed into 106km (64 miles), this route will test your legs, pacing, and determination from start to finish.
There are no route arrows apart from key climb points, so riders must navigate using the GPX/GPS files we’ll provide closer to the event.
This is all about the ride, the adventure, and the challenge ahead.
No shortcuts.
No easy option.
Just you, your bike, and the climbs.
Definitely not for the faint-hearted… unless you’re looking for something seriously rewarding.
Are you hard-core enough?
You must join the official group event on Strava to be eligible for a share of the prize pot (TBC).
IF YOU ENTER WITH JERSEY WE WILL EMAIL TO ASK YOUR JERSEY SIZE
(Entry with Jersey). You can view all the Jerseys on our webpage in the Shop.
No matter your ability, this is a friendly and welcoming spordax.

ROUTE MAPIf you require a printed map, you need to download and print your own, there are no printed maps available at the event.
Although the routes are comprehensively marked with route arrows on occasion people move these signs, we suggest downloading the route to a phone or navigation device just in case you need route assistance on the day.
For the safety of riders and the sanity of event staff we must use cut offs, if you start your ride at the appropriate time and can ride at approx. 12 mph you will make the course split point.
On this event there is no cut off. If not, you will be directed to the medium course, this affects the Long route only.
RIDERS ON ALL ROUTES MUST RETURN TO THE EVENT VENUE BY 1630
