The PolkaDot Challenge sportive has run for the last 10 years and attracts sportive enthusiasts from across the UK. In 2012 the route will take in some of the finest scenery in the Peak District using quiet lanes and areas of outstanding natural beauty.

The event has established itself as one of the UK’s ‘must ride sportives’ and in 2012 the organisation of the prestigious event is set to change. Wills Wheels CC, a local club with an excellent reputation, will deliver the event with the help of the current organiser.

The organising team are pleased to announce that entries go live on British Cycling’s online entry system in the coming weeks. ‘Early bird’ entries are open to British Cycling members from midnight on Boxing Day for one week. Entries open to the broader cycling community at midnight on the 2 January.
